Старовинне карпатське село Спас розташоване в 10 кілометрах на південь від Коломиї.

Вперше згадується в 1433 році як Іспас (від Ісус Спаситель). У ті часи тут існував Іспасський монастир. В 1621-1626 роках село було повністю спалено турками й татарами, в тому числі згорів монастир. Тривалий час замість храму була лише каплиця. В кінці XVIII столітті коштом прихожан була побудована Преображенська церква, що збереглася дотепер на північній околиці села.

Встановлено пам'ятник письменнику, громадському діячу, священику Маркіяну Шашкевичу, ідеологу національного відродження Західної України.

Щорічно в серпні в селі Спас проходить фестиваль автентичної кухні "Смачний Спас".

Transfiguration of Lord Church

Temple , Architecture

The Church of the Transfiguration of the Lord in the village of Spas was built in 1811 at the expense of the parishioners. Before that, there was only a chapel in the village, built after the Tatars burned down the Ispas Monastery in the 17th century.

The church is wooden, five-bay, cruciform in plan. The iconostasis was ordered by Italian masters.

The Church of the Transfiguration has been restored several times, as a result of which it is now covered not with authentic wooden shingles, but with sheet metal.
