Church of the Dormition in Bałucianka, Eastern Orthodox church in Bałucianka, Poland.

The wooden church features a three-part structure with a tower that narrows toward the top, covered by traditional shingle roofing and octagonal domes.

The church, constructed around 1750, served the Greek Catholic community until the 1940s when the local population was relocated from the area.

The interior displays a four-tier iconostasis combining elements from two periods: late 17th century Baroque and early 18th century Late Baroque styles.

The church stands next to a brick bell tower from 1820, located 8 kilometers southwest of Rymanów and 18 kilometers south of Krosno.

The church houses one of the oldest preserved royal doors from the Halician school, dating to the 15th century, now stored in the Museum.
