Greek Catholic Saints Cosmas and Damian church in Bartne

The Greek Catholic Parish Church of St. Cosmas and St. Damian in Bartne arose in 1842. In the C18th a spire was added. After World War II the church lay in disuse and was partially destroyed. Currently it is a museum building, administered by the District Museum in Nowy Sącz. It is a typical West-Lemko church, built using log construction and covered with shingles. The fittings of the church are: a late-baroque C18th iconostasis (with sovereign icons from the C16th), a side altar with an icon of The Crucifixion from 1797, and the unique C18th icons: Madonna with Child and Christ Pantocrator.
