Lukonitsa. St. Michael's Church.

The town of Lukonitsa in the Zelvensky district has a beautiful Baroque church. The Catholic church was built in 1782 in the late Baroque style and consecrated in honor of St. Michael the Archangel. The building is stone, squat in appearance, made of brick and stone. A bell tower was also built near the church in the 18th century.


The church is single-nave. It has a pentagonal apse and a sacristy. A decorative pediment is built over the apse. The main facade is completed with a multi-tiered pediment with a powerful cornice and decorative curlicues - currencies. There are also double pilasters with Corinthian capitals. The side walls and facade are cut through with semicircular windows. The church is covered with a gable roof.


On the right side, near the main facade, a three-tiered bell tower has been built.

The bell tower is decorated with flat pilasters, which are completed with cornices. It has a hipped roof. A stone fence with a rubble stone gate was built around the church.


The ruins of a 19th-century stone chapel have been preserved in the local cemetery. And in the village there are several outbuildings from the former estate.
