Pylypets is a village with a population of 1.4 thousand people located in Mizhgirya district of the Zakarpattia region, about 120 km east of Uzhhorod. First of all this place is known as a ski resort.

However, the village has some other attractions. Church of the Nativity of the Blessed Virgin Mary, built of spruce boards presumably in 1759-1762, is one of them.

The church, an architectural monument of national importance, is located on a small hill in the central part of Pylypets, on the banks of the Repinka River. Pylypets on Google Maps. Photos by: Maxim Ritus.
