Yes, I have visited the Rusyn Folklife Museum in Uzhhorod twice. I even bribed the "baba" tour guides in order to photograph the interior of the St. Michael the Archangel Greek Catholic Church.

The church looks like it belongs in a movie. I would like to see it with snow or frost on its roof.
The girl is very cute.

St. Michael the Archangel Greek Catholic Church originally built (c. 1771) in the Rusyn village of Shelestovo, Bereg County, a few miles north of Mukachevo. The Soviet government moved the wooden church along with other Rusyn, Hungarian and Romanian wooden buildings in the 1950's to the Outdoor Folklife Museum in Uzhhorod.

Alexandr lol my original post was: "haha Slavipodvizhnik you have good taste - that chick is hot - she's one fine example of a female from our Ukrainian race.... I would of offered her a little english lesson if I was there" then I changed my post because it dawned on me that she might be your wife/girlfriend or maybe your kid and you might take offense to me calling her "Ukrainian", you being being Carpatho-Russian and all

Is there anyone who can give us any information on the status
of the Ruthenian Church in Transcarpathian Rus? What little news
I get generally concerns the Ruthenian Church in Slovakia, where it seems to be doing well. What about the homeland?

Wait, is that the wooden church from Kanora? I just checked my photo album and it isn't the Shelestovo church. My bad.

It looks to be the wooden church from Ploske, north west of Svaljava in northern Bereg County. If it is, it would be the Church of the Intercession of the Virgin . According to Zapletal's book, it was built in c.1792 but was transferred in the 1920's to Kanora. I knew it had a Kanora connection.

I think that a school group was visiting from somewhere! Alexandr
