Significant damage to this church occurred during the Second World War, in 1944. It was not until 1966 that it was moved to the Humen open-air museum.
The temple is built on a stone foundation, has a log construction. The tower and the shelter have a pillar structure. The church is three-part, three-room, three-tower with three crosses. The main tower rises from the roof, which extends across the nave to the sanctuary. The body of the tower is covered with boards and the body of the ship is covered with wooden shingles. One bell from 1811 should be hung in the tower. The nave has an octagonal tower, the sanctuary tower is similarly designed. Metal crosses are mounted on the top. Above the main tower and the nave are three-armed, above the sanctuary a decorative one-armed one. The entrance to the temple is from the west side into the vestibule and is protected by a shelter.
The iconostasis has a five-tier architecture on five floors. It dates from the first half of the 18th century, and a number of prophets are newer. The first, the main series contains the icons of St. Bishop Nicholas, the Mother of God of Hodigitra, Christ, the icon of the Mother of God of Hodigitra, which is not the original icon. The deacon's door is not fitted with a leaf. The imperial door is rare in that it does not contain the classic six medallions with evangelists and the Annunciation, but together on both wings the twelve medallions of Jesse's tree, that is, the pedigree of Christ. The second row of holidays is divided by the Last Supper icon. The third row consists of icons of the apostles, with the icon of Christ the High Priest with St. The Virgin and St. John. The fourth row is atypically designed. It consists of twelve medallions. In the middle is Christ's monogram in a wreath with a miter on top, held by two angels. Above the iconostasis is a blackboard icon of the Crucifixion with the figures of the Virgin, Mary Magdalene, St. the evangelist John and Captain Longin. The fifth row consists of icons of Christ and St. Peter of Alexandria, St. Anton and Teodosius Pečerskí, vol. Peter and Paul, vol. Paraskeva.
