Tips from the Community
Wooden churches always impress me. This one—apparently a typical Lemko church (they had good taste!)—dates back to the early 19th century and is an Orthodox church. It's not on the Main Beskid Trail itself, but almost there, so it's worth the detour.

A very nice place, especially for a holiday

A beautiful basilica with a Redemptorist monastery. The first church was already there in the 11th century (then wooden), but I have a feeling (maybe something has come over me?) that the current building in the Baroque style makes a greater impression. It is really worth going inside for a few minutes - pray that your feet don't give out during the walk - and look at the interior and furnishings (also most of them from the Baroque period).

The flourishing in the 14th and 15th centuries. Bishop of Warmiński Marcin Kromer, a humanist, historian, writer and diplomat, was born here; there was a school of executioners here. Worth seeing.

The first church was built in this place in 1629, and the current one was built in its place in the 18th century and thoroughly rebuilt in 1871. Until 1947 and the displacement of the inhabitants, it was a Greek Catholic church, and in the years 1947-1958 a Catholic church. Due to the poor condition of the building, a decision was made to demolish it, but it was saved. This was thanks to several previously displaced families who returned to Hańczowa and renovated the church for the needs of the Orthodox parish established in 1958. In later years, the church was renovated several more times. The area of the church is surrounded by a wooden fence with gates from the 19th century. A granite cross was placed in 1988 to commemorate the millennium of the baptism of Ruthenia. A bronze plaque dedicated to the Lemkos expelled in 1947 hangs on the wall of the church.

A good, asphalt road through a pass 554 m above sea level. The pass itself is hidden in the forest, and the ascents (descents) are very scenic.
