Culture

The old Ukrainian church in Remeți is a former Pauline monastery church dating from the 15th century and preserves an 18th-century Rococo-style iconostasis. It is located about 200 metres from the national road on Dubrora Hill, northeast of the village.

The new Ukrainian Orthodox parish church in Remeți, dedicated to All Saints, was built between 1984 and 1986. In 2001–2002, it was decorated with tempera paintings by a team of artists from Ukraine’s Zakarpattia region.

For the Ukrainian community, the Ukrainian church in Remeți combines prayer in the native language with traditional customs and practices. The “Remețeanca” cultural and artistic ensemble from Remeți, made up of pupils from the local general school, has been recognised at Ukrainian cultural events. The Remeți choir includes Ukrainian folk songs in its repertoire.

The Ukrainian autumn customs and harvest festival “Obiceiuri de toamnă la ucraineni” (“Ziua Recoltei”), held for many years in Remeți Commune, brings together artistic groups from Ukrainian communities in Maramureș.

In the village of Teceu Mic, construction of the brick church began in 1985 and lasted until 1992; initially, it was shaped like a chapel. The Ukrainian Greek Catholic church there is a brick-built chapel without an iconostasis, dedicated to Saint George.
