In the center of Terka there is a characteristic screen-shaped historic bell tower; a witness of the passing time and the heroine of many photos from the Bieszczady Mountains. It is a church bell tower from the 19th century, which survived demolition. Unfortunately, one of the two bells has been lost, but the other one is still used in the church bell tower.

A lonely screen bell tower, a remnant of the former Orthodox church. The first Orthodox church that stood in this place was mentioned already in 1489. The next Orthodox church was built in Terka in 1781 and existed until around 1911. In the same year, another Orthodox church was built, made of brick, but it burned down three years later. In 1922 it was rebuilt. It survived World War II in good condition, but was abandoned and fell into ruin. Approx. In 1957 the church was demolished. Only the lonely bell tower was left.
