Krasne (Ukrainian: Красне, Polish: Krasne) is a village (selo) in Turka Raion, Lviv Oblast, in south-west Ukraine. It was mentioned as early as 1441, but Krasne was probably later depopulated, as it had to be resettled in 1556. The local Orthodox church was mentioned in 1670. The currently standing church in the village was built in 1933, according to a design of Jevhen Nahirny.[1]
