Hello little adventurers! Today, we are about 234 years back when St. Andrew's church in Paparna began to be built. Imagine the people of that time - wearing long dresses and shoes with articles, but they had very firm hearts full of desires for a new church.
This old church stands at a small height above the village of Papradna. When the building began, we would see a huge pile of stones and wood. People of that time worked on this grand project every day. Adult men, women, and even children helped record stones or carry wood.

Seasonal recommendations
In the spring there is around the church of St. Andrew in Papradni green. Light is suitable for photographing details. Due to unpredictable weather we recommend layered clothing. During this period the attendance is lower.
Summer days are long and sunny. Due to increased interest in historical places and heat, it is advisable to arrive early in the morning. Take protection from sun and water while walking.
In the autumn, morning fog lives around the church and the colour of the leaves changes. We recommend firm shoes due to slippery sheet and warmer clothes for colder afternoons.
In winter, the country is snowed. Due to the short day it is advisable to visit the church in the midday. Before visiting, check the opening time, which may be shorter. Don't forget winter clothes and be careful of frost and snow.
