Holy Transfiguration Tryhirya Monastery
Temple , Architecture
The Holy Transfiguration Tryhirya Male Orthodox Monastery was founded in 1583 by Prince Volodymyr Zhytomyrsky.
For the holy abode, the prince identified a secluded place in the middle of a thick forest on the highest bank of the Teteriv River. In the 18th century, the monastery passed to the Uniates, but in 1839 it was returned to the Orthodox Church.
The monastery is compact and cozy, consisting only of the laconic Church of the Transfiguration (1854-1873) and the cell building (1782). The main shrine is the icon of the Mother of God of Trihir.
The fence offers a spectacular view of the Teteriv canyon, filled with water from the reservoir, with high rocky banks covered with mixed forest.
