Saints Cosmas and Damian church () orthodox parish church (PCU) in Shmankivtsi of the Zavodske settlement hromada of the Chortkiv Raion of the Ternopil Oblast. History 
In 1885, a new stone Greek Catholic church was built and consecrated on the site of a wooden church, by the parishioners of the villages of Shmankivtsi and Shmankivchyky. Architect — Yosyp Stets. In 1869 the parishioners of the village and Mykola Karpinskyi (founder) built the chapel of St. Nicholas, which was first renewed in 1926. In Soviet times, the figure of St. Nicholas was moved to the churchyard. In 1989, the chapel was restored. In May–September 1939, through the efforts of Fr. Porfyrii Hordievskyi painted in memory of the 950th anniversary of the baptism of Rus'-Ukraine (artist M. Chuiko). In 1959, on the occasion of the 25th anniversary of his priesthood, the church was reconstructed with the donations of parishioners and the efforts of Pastor Mykola Stetsyk (artists Marko Nykolyshyn, Zinovii Tymoshyk, plasterer Ivan Babii). In 2020, a cross was found in the bell tower building, which once served as a wooden temple. There is a fraternity, a sisterhood, a church committee and a church choir. Near the church grows a botanical natural monument of local significance "Oak Shashkevych". Abbots
