UA-1300338 St George’s Church in Drohobych, Ukraine - a Wooden Tserkva

In 2013, the UNESCO selected sixteen historical Wooden Tserkvas (as these peculiar churches are called), as new world heritage sites. Eight are on Polish territory and the other eight are in Ukraine.  Of the eight in Ukraine, I have so far received postcards of two of them. The first one is The Descent of the Holy Spirit Church in Potelych. See:

This postcard was received from Lilliya (12 June 2015) Postcrossing.  It shows St. George's Church in Drohobych.

St George’s Church in Drohobych is one of the oldest and best preserved timber churches of Galicia. The church, dating from ca. 1500, consists of three parts. The central block is square in plan and comprises the nave. Two other blocks contain the double apse and the narthex. Between 1678 and 1711, the church was renovated: the interior was frescoed, the octagonal structures built up, and a new belfry appeared.
