Saint Elijah Church

Temple , Architecture

The wooden church of Saint Elijah is located in the center of Shepit village. It was built in 1898 on the site of the old Assumption Church, erected in 1763 in honor of the 60th anniversary of the reign of Emperor Frants Yosyf.

The Church of Saint Elijah in Shepit is a successful combination of the traditional architecture of a single-domed church characteristic of Bukovyna and the modern architecture prevailing at the end of the 19th century. The architectural dominant is a massive dome in the form of a flattened bulb. The steep roofs above the narthex and the altar are finished with pointed ridges. A characteristic detail is small arrow windows with multi-colored glass.

The temple houses the imperial throne, which, during the collapse of the Austrian Empire in 1918, was not taken away from Vienna and left in Shepit.
