Orthodox Church in Hańczowa

The first church was built in this place in 1629, and the current one was built in its place in the 18th century and thoroughly rebuilt in 1871. Until 1947 and the displacement of the inhabitants, it was a Greek Catholic church, and in the years 1947-1958 a Catholic church. Due to the poor condition of the building, a decision was made to demolish it, but it was saved. This was thanks to several previously displaced families who returned to Hańczowa and renovated the church for the needs of the Orthodox parish established in 1958. In later years, the church was renovated several more times.The area of the church is surrounded by a wooden fence with gates from the 19th century. A granite cross was placed in 1988 to commemorate the millennium of the baptism of Ruthenia. A bronze plaque dedicated to the Lemkos expelled in 1947 hangs on the wall of the church.
