Najstarsza cerkiew w Polsce, a mało kto wie o jej istnieniu. Ten niezwykły zabytek prawosławnego gotyku z XV, albo nawet XIV wieku, stoi sobie spokojnie zapomniany przez świat. Stoi pusty i już nikt nie śpiewa w nim boskiej liturgii, ani nie głosi ewangelii.
Jak przystało na gmach obronny, wejść mi się nie udało. Ani zobaczyć średniowiecznych fresków wewnątrz. Klucz ponoć spoczywa bezpiecznie w gminie Fredropol.

Church of St. Cosmas and Damian, Anusin, Poland

It is a wooden Orthodox church built between 1902 and 1904 on the site of an older church dating back to the late 18th century. It serves as the parish church for the Telatycze parish and is a typical example of log architecture from the southern Podlasie region. The church has a three-part structure with a three-story tower above the vestibule, an octagonal drum, and a characteristic onion-shaped dome covering the roof.

The interior of the church features an eclectic iconostasis from the early 20th century, containing icons of Baroque character. An unusual element of the decoration is the Stations of the Cross hanging on the side walls, which are rarely found in Orthodox churches. Around the church grounds, there is a stone slab with a mysterious, partially faded inscription combining Cyrillic and Greek alphabet characters, as well as a baptismal font located near a nearby stream.

Church of St. Anne, Królowy Most, Poland

The church was built in the first half of the 20th century for the Orthodox parish established in 1900. Construction began in 1913 and was fully completed before 1939.

The temple was constructed in the shape of a Greek cross, using stone and facing brick, in an eclectic style. Inside, there is an iconostasis originating from a church in Grodno. The polychromes of the temple were created by Włodzimierz Wasilewicz in 1939.

Church of St. John the Theologian, Monastery of the Annunciation of the Most Holy Theotokos, Supraśl, Poland

Built of red bricks between 1889 and 1890 within the monastery buildings. It serves the faithful (and monks) as a warm winter church. It was added to the existing southern monastic wing, connecting directly to it from the eastern elevation.

This is an oriented temple, rectangular in shape with a three-part structure typical of Orthodox churches.

The original iconostasis has not survived. The current iconostasis was created in contemporary times. The icons for this iconostasis were painted at the Iconographic Studio in Bielsk Podlaski, under the direction of Father Leoncjusz Tofiluk.

Defensive Orthodox church, Supraśl, Poland (part 1 of 3) The monastery in Supraśl is one of five male Orthodox monasteries in Poland. Work on the main church, a defensive temple dedicated to the Annunciation, began here in 1510. In 1635, the monastery came under the control of the Uniates and was administered by the Basilian order for nearly 200 years. This order significantly expanded the complex, adding new Baroque furnishings to the monastery church and a three-tiered iconostasis with a crowning element. In 1824, after Supraśl fell under Russian rule, the monastery was taken over by the Russian Orthodox Church. The male monastery functioned until 1915, when the monks went into exile. During the interwar period, the monastery buildings belonged to the Salesians. From 1939 to 1941, the monastery was devastated by the Soviet troops stationed there. A kitchen was set up in the Church of St. John the Theologian, and a forge was established in the main temple. Soldiers removed icons from the building and destroyed the Baroque iconostasis. In 1944, retreating Germans blew up the main church and forced the monks to leave the monastery. The remains of the temple were secured as a permanent ruin after World War II. #suprasl #cerkiew #cerkiewprawoslawna #orthodox #orthodoxchurch #podlasie #kosciol #church #polska #poland #architektura #architekturasakralna #architecture #sacralarchitecture #temple #swiatynia #chrzescijanstwo #christianity #zamek #castle #monastery #monaster #russians #germans #history #historia

Defensive Orthodox church, Supraśl, Poland - interior (part 3 of 3)

The ambitious project to restore the frescoes, of which the salvaged fragments can be viewed at the Museum of Icons, was based on the use of the original technique of working on wet plaster, as the author of the Supraśl polychromes, the Serbian monk Nektarius, did over five centuries ago (according to sources, he completed his work on them in 1557).

Preparations for the reconstruction lasted several years. Specialists who are capable of creating frescoes in this manner were found in Serbia, at the Academy of Arts and Conservation in Belgrade. The main source of knowledge about what the frescoes looked like is photographic documentation from the early 20th century, but the creators also referred to, for example, a book on fresco painting that Nektarius wrote.
