Church of Saints Cyril and Methodius, Wooden church in Hrčava, Czech Republic
The Church of Saints Cyril and Methodius is a wooden building with traditional architectural features located in the mountainous eastern border region of the Czech Republic. The structure shows simple craftsmanship and functional design typical of early 20th-century construction in this area.
The building was completed in 1936 during a period of church construction in the interwar Czechoslovak era. This building phase reflected efforts to establish religious centers in remote border areas of the young nation.
The church is named after two saints who helped spread Christianity among Slavic peoples. Visitors can see how this connection shapes the local religious identity that remains visible in the community today.
The building sits in a hilly area near the Czech-Polish border and is accessible to visitors exploring the region. The location is most easily reached during warmer months when the mountain roads and paths are in good condition.
The wooden structure remains in active use today and continues to serve as a place for worship and religious ceremonies. This ongoing use makes it a living religious site with unbroken tradition since its construction decades ago.
