Summary/Abstract: Banat lost many of its wooden churches over time. The Habsburg land systematizations, the transformation of built environment in the 19th century, the communist systematizations and last but not least the contemporary conservation practices led to the disappearance of many wooden churches. The few that have survived are either in a rather pronounced state of degradation, or arguably restored with significant losses of original material.
