The wooden church of Creaca is located in the village of the same name in the Sălaj district. Probably built in the 18th century, but there are no written records on the subject. It is on the new list of monuments under the LMI code: SJ-II-m-A-05044. According to tradition, the church was moved twice. The interior wall painting is attributed to the painter Ioan Pop from Românași.
The church has a window only on the south side, in which there is an almost completely obliterated external wall painting. The eaves (so-called Saturdays) were located on the north side and strongly connected to the top of the building. The church was restored in 1972 and then around 1998.
