The Vukovar cathedral church of Saint Father Nikolai was built from 1733 to 1737, and the temple on Good Water dedicated to the Holy Mother Paraskeva was built in the early 19th century from 1808 to 1811. At the beginning of the 19th century, Vukovar Serbs rented four cadastral acres of land from Count Emerik Elc in the Adica Forest, for which until 1848 the Count paid two ducats a year. On this land, at the source of medicinal water, a church was erected dedicated to the Reverend Mother Paraskeva, which was built between 1808 and 1811 as a one-nave building in the Baroque style. Before the Second World War, the church was restored by the Vukovar merchant Paja Uglješić, and after the war it was painted and desecrated several times. It was also rebuilt in 1982, and then in the last war a new destruction would occur when its interior was damaged. Since 1996, by the decision of the then bishop of Lucian, the Bishop of Osijek and Baranja, it became a parochial church and soon, three years later, was rebuilt externally and internally. Also, this temple is painted with frescoes on canvas consecrated on August 8, 2008, on the feast day of the Holy Martyr Paraskeva ...
