Church of the Entry of Jesus Christ into Jerusalem
The Greek-Catholic church in the village of Staryi Uhryniv has a unique name - the Church of the Entry of Our Lord Jesus Christ into Jerusalem.
The wooden temple was founded in 1820, but in 1914 it burned down from a shell, and was later rebuilt (according to some reports, in 1924).
Andriy Bandera, the father of the UPA leader Stepan Bandera, served as a priest in the Staryi Uhryniv church, as evidenced by a commemorative plaque with a bas-relief.
