The Orthodox wooden church named Sf. Michael and Gabriel was built in the year 1676, and it has a painting on wood dating from 1778. People say that the walls used to be painted too in the past, but today only the iconostas and the doors to the altar are painted. The iconostas bearing the theme of the crucifixion, under which Jesus and the 12 Apostles can be seen, is painted on cloth. The beautiful church was restored between 1981 and 1993, by artists brought from Maramures, several beams from the walls were changed, but they preserved the original shape and structure.
