Saint Demetrius church in Stary Dzików, Eastern Orthodox church in Stary Dzików, Poland.

The brick Saint Demetrius Church features a cross-shaped floor plan with a central dome and decorative three-part windows throughout its structure.

Established in 1904, the church served the Greek Catholic parish until 1950, when the Ukrainian population resettlement led to its temporary conversion into storage.

The church represents the architectural fusion of Neo-Byzantine elements with local Polish construction techniques of the early twentieth century.

Visitors can explore the church interior, which contains set pieces from the film Katyn, including preserved wooden bunk beds from the production.

The church gained recognition as a filming location for Andrzej Wajda's Oscar-nominated film Katyn, where it depicted the Kozielsk monastery.
