Church of the Assumption in Zembin

The Church of the Assumption features two distinct towers and an altar apse within its basilica-shaped structure made of stone and traditional materials.

Medieval frescoes inside the church walls depict various Biblical narratives and scenes from daily life, representing artistic traditions from different periods.
