Church of the Holy Archangels, Rogoz, Romanian Orthodox wooden church in Rogoz, Romania.

The church features a timber structure made from slabs joined without metal nails, resting on a foundation of stone blocks and pebbles.

Built in 1633, the church includes an inscription near the entrance documenting a Tatar raid in 1661 and survived another invasion in 1717.

The interior walls display murals by Nicholas Mann and Radu Munteanu from 1785, depicting religious scenes that reflect local painting traditions.

The structure stands at coordinates 47°28'8.86"N, 23°55'37.10"E in Maramureș County, with regular guided tours available for visitors throughout the year.

A round window in the apse allows sunlight to illuminate the altar specifically during August, demonstrating advanced architectural planning.
