The Baroque-style wooden church was built at the request of the locals in the heart of the village of Bukovets in 1808. In 1801, the village requested funding for the construction of a new church from a religious foundation, since the two churches available at the time – their buildings being too small – were not suitable for the parishioners. The new church was built of spruce beams, with three naves and a tower over the narthex. Its roof, along with the walls, is clad in wood shingles, and the top of the tower with plowshare-like oak shingles. The church houses some samples of folk carvings and a few icons from the iconostasis which belonged to one of the two old wooden churches whose mentions date back to 1751. The altar apparently also originated from the old church, as it bears the inscription left by the carvers Isavka Cherepanych and Ivan Baranyshenets, who completed the work on 29 April 1760. Next to the church is a conventional two-tiered bell tower, whose big bell was cast by Franz Leherer in Prešov in 1832 and the two smaller ones – by Karel Manoušek in Brno in 1924.
