Molenna in Wodziłki, Old Believer wooden church in Wodziłki, Poland
The wooden prayer house stands in the Szeszupa valley within the Suwalski National Park, featuring a traditional Orthodox architectural design with grouped windows.
The village of Wodziłki was established in 1788 by Russians who left their homeland following the Orthodox Church reforms implemented by Patriarch Nikon.
Ten local families maintain their religious practices in this prayer house, following strict traditions including ritual cleansing before entering the building.
The molenna is accessible via the Green Velo cycling trail, with visitors able to contact local authorities at +48 87 566 20 79 for visiting arrangements.
Next to the prayer house stands a Russian-style black bath that releases smoke through its openings, used for traditional cleansing rituals.
