Church of the Assumption of Mary

Top choice in Carpathian Mountains


Located In the village of Haczów (hah-choof), 16km east of Krosno and accessible by bus, this is the largest timber Gothic church in Europe and is a Unesco World Heritage site. Built in the mid-15th century on the site of a predecessor founded by Władysław Jagiełło in 1388, its interior walls and coffered ceiling are covered in rare naive paintings dating from the late 15th century and restored in the 1990s.
