St. Elizabeth’s Church in Trybsz probably arose in 1567. It was built using log construction with the walls shingled and strengthened by interlocking planking. During repair work in 1924 the bell-house spire and sacristy were dismantled. The interior walls and ceilings have late-baroque polychrome decoration from 1647, with depictions of the saints. Also noteworthy are the Assumption and Coronation of Our Lady on the chancel ceiling, painted against the backdrop of a panorama of the Tatras. Few of the old historical fittings have been preserved, with the majority moved to the new brick parish church. |
