This thesis deals with sacral architecture in northeastern Slovakia, which contributes to the importance of the Šariš region. Some of the buildings (Bodružal, Hervartov and Ladomirová) are included in the UNESCO World Cultural Heritage. The aim of this thesis was dendrochronological dating of selected wooden churches in this region. Based on standard dendrochronological procedures, remove, prepare and measure samples as well as anatomically identify the woods used to build churches. For the purpose of this work, 8 churches of the log structure were selected (Bodružal, Frička, Hervartov, Jedlinka, Kožany, Krivé, Ladomirová, Lukov), of which 118 samples were taken using a Pressler increment borer and 25 photographs for image analysis. The most represented wood was fir (130 samples). A total of 143 samples collected resulted in a successful dating of all churches. The oldest of the dated churches was in Hervartov, where the timber was mined between 1589 and 1593. On the other hand, the youngest of the dated churches was the church in Krive, dating from 1822 to 1826. to the early 19th century. Synchronized annual ring curves were used to construct a local standard chronology that covers the period between 1465 and 1845. This local standard chronology can be used for further determination of wooden churches not only in eastern Slovakia but also in the vicinity. Dating contributes to the clarification of the building history of some churches, as the literature often states inconsistencies.
