Saint Paraskevi Church in Kwiatoń
Southern Lesser Poland seems to be rich in wooden churches. It seems to have a both Roman Catholic and Greek Catholic churches. The culture of this area seems to embrace the use of wood as a construction material. It can be seen in the structures which are built in the region. It is not uncommon to see what appears to be a log cabin here in this area. It is not a surprise to then see churches getting the same treatment. I met someone in Brunary and it seemed like they were caretakers of the tserkva. The man seems to be aware of the importance of the tserkvas and that they were part of the UNESCO World Heritage site.
Approaching Saint Paraskevi Church in Kwiatoń
The caretaker then gave me a list of nearby wooden churches for me to visit. Some of them I have already visited, while some of them were already in my list. I won’t have time to visit everything in his list, it was already afternoon and I will need to wrap up the tour soon. I still have a couple more places to go to. Fortunately, the next one is in the village of Kwiatoń, which is not very far from Brunary. The man also told me to visit Kwiatoń since it was nearby. There were signs pointing to the tserkva with a brown tourist sign of the outline of the church. It was difficult to miss.
