The wooden Church of St. Michael was probably built in 1777. Tyvodar Lehotskyy, a Ukrainian historian, believes that the building was actually constructed a while before this date. According to him, 1777 would be the time of the churches' consecration after the building had been renovated. The building is entirely made of oak and the tower is 22 meters high. It is the only remaining classical Lemko wooden church in the Carpathians. The church was built in an old Ukrainian style, with Baroque towers. The building had originally been constructed somewhere else, but it was moved to the Uzhhorod Museum of Folk Architecture and Rural Life in 1972, after a period of abandonment during the Sovjet times.

St. Nicholas’ church, founded in 1407, is the youngest of the Lüneburg churches. The church is richly decorated with Gothic works of art.

In the choir gallery there are remains of a high altar from the former Heiligental monastery church.

The Church of St. Nicholas was consecrated in 1878 by the stationary Russian army, which turned old Turkish houses into its chapel. On this chapel, a new church was built from 1923 to 1926, with the two side towers erected with the bell tower and the central dome, and new wall paintings added.

The Church of St. Nicholas was built in the 14th and 15th centuries. It is famous for its two towers which owe their difference to the fact that the top of the north tower was poorly built.

Further renovations to the roof took place in 1974, the interior was renovated from 1986 to 1994.
