Aciua - The Orthodox Church of “St. Demetrius”

The first wooden church of the village was burnt by the Tatars in 1717. The present church, built in 1862, has a single nave and a semicircular apse. The tower with a square section, lifted above the nave, has semicircular windows at the upper level. The arcades decorating the tower have the same form. The entrance is made through an opened porch, with four columns and a triangular façade. The church was renovated and consecrated by the bishop of Oradea, Dr. Valeriu Traian Ferentiu, in 1927. (DB).
