Łopienka, Abandoned village in Bieszczady Mountains, Poland.
The Greek Catholic church, constructed in 1757 from unrefined stone, stands as the sole remaining structure in the deserted village of Łopienka.
Founded by the Bal family in 1543, Łopienka held Wallachian rights and belonged to the Sanok land within the Ruthenian Voivodeship until the 20th century.
The first Sunday of October marks an annual pilgrimage featuring an ecumenical service attended by Roman Catholic and Eastern church representatives.
The church remains open to visitors throughout the year, with a healing water well located ten minutes away and a former cemetery 200 meters from the site.
Łopienka operated as one of the earliest oil mining centers globally, with refineries and wells established before 1884 serving nearby locations.
