Church of the Nativity of the Virgin Mary
Staryi Vovchynets, Hlyboka rayon, Chernivtsi oblast, Ukraine
In the village of Staryi Vovchynets, you can visit the Church of the Nativity of the Virgin Mary, built in 1900. Like most of the stone churches in the Hlyboka district, the church in Staryi Vovchynets bears the features of Romanian architecture, but differs from similar typical churches by octagonal towers with onion-shaped domes attached to the Babynets on both sides and a disproportionately wide three-tiered bell tower that looks more like a giant rotunda.
