General information about Saint Stephen's Church (Usychi)

The wooden church of Saint Stephen (according to other sources - the Apostle and Evangelist Luke) was built in Usychi at the end of the 18th century.

The three-log, one-headed temple stands on a stone foundation. It is a characteristic landmark of Volyn folk architecture.

The main shrine was an oval-shaped icon of the Nativity of Christ, which is now kept in the Volyn Icon Museum in Lutsk.

Дерев'яна церква Святого Стефана (за іншими джерелами - Апостола та євангеліста Луки) побудована в Усичах в кінці XVIII століття.

Тризрубний, одноголовий храм стоїть на кам'яному фундаменті. Є характерною пам'яткою волинської народної архітектури.

Головною святинею була овальна формою ікона Різдва Христового, яка зберігається тепер у Музеї волинської ікони у Луцьку.
