The wooden Church of the Nativity of the Holy Virgin in Kryvorivnia was founded in 1719, and was rebuilt in its present form in 1818. Tempera paintings of the 19th century have been preserved.
The Church is considered one of the best examples of the Hutsul school of folk architecture.

Palace / manor , Architecture
The manor of the Count family of Reys in Pryozerne (in the past - the village of Psari) was created in the 18th-19th centuries.
The Reys were descendants of the ancient Potocki family. The initial palace complex (classical, with a colonnade and a portico) arose in Psari in the second half of the 18th century. In 1880, the old palace was dismantled, and Countess Vilhelmina Rey began to build a new palace. The manor was designed by the well-known Lviv architect Yulian Zakharevych. The estate was surrounded by a landscape park with plane trees with an area of about 8 hectares.
The last owner of the estate was Lyudvik Rey. With the beginning of the Second World War, the count left for France, and his estate fell into the hands of the collective farm. During the Soviet period, it was used for economic purposes. Later - as a psychiatric hospital. In 1955, students of the Rohatyn zoo-veterinary complex settled in the palace. During the time of independent Ukraine, a nunnery operated here, and later the manor was transferred to the UOC of the Kyiv Patriarchate.
Currently, the Reys manor is in a deplorable state, although the Ukrainian-Polish "Psari" fund, headed by Martin Ryy, the grandson of the last owner, has already taken an interest in it.
