Entrance Door

Chotyniec, Poland view map

The main entrance door is made with three big pieces of timber and there's an old ornamentation on the intel.
The wooden vestibule was added only in early 1990s.
Also, there can be seen traditional Ukrainian "Rushnyki" (towels) - a ritual cloth made of linen or cotton, with woven or embroidered designs, done by hand.
They are usually draped over religious picture frames or crosses, at homes and churches. In Ukrainian tradition, rushnik was regarded as a protection against evil.
