Map of Copalnic: Old church

The documents attest to the existence of a monastery church, remaining in 1774 without monks. The church has become Greek-Catholics and has been used by them until the prohibition of this religion. Then it became Orthodox. The church is composed of a narthex, a nave and an altar. The prophet was later added in 1830 when the church tower was built. There is a cross visible from the door, supposedly the church's founder.
The tower, with an open-planed tower, is 20 m tall. Maramures wooden superstructure is typical, and is covered with shingles. The nave is vaulted and only the sky are painting instead to store furniture and carved iconostasis. The walls are whitewashed.
The altar table altar foot inscription appears INF.1700, ZIDL 1835 REN 1933. The church was renovated in 2011-2012, both outwardly and inwardly. The architecture has been preserved, restored including the stone floor.
