The Church of St. Paraksewy in Kwiatoń is considered one of the most beautiful Orthodox churches in Poland, and certainly the most beautiful in the Low Beskids. It was appreciated by being inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage List. It is a wooden building from the end of the 17th century with a carcass construction with a tower with sloping walls, most probably built half a century later. Everything is covered with rot. Its interior consists of three rooms built on a square plan: a women's gallery (with a tower), a nave and a presbytery. The different height of each part means that it is already visible from the outside that it is a classic, three-part church. The late-baroque interior of the church is very rich, mainly from the 18th and 19th centuries. It is worth going inside to see the beautiful iconostasis, side altars, the openwork window sill of the music choir and wall paintings. In Kwiatoń, a friendly guide is always waiting for visitors, who will tell about the history of the church and its equipment.
