General information about Piddubtsi

The village of Piddubtsi is located 10 kilometers east of Lutsk, near the highway N-22 "Rivne - Lutsk".

It was first mentioned in 1541. The village got its name from the area on the banks of the Konoplyanka River, which in ancient times was covered with a luxurious oak forest.

Poet Lesya Ukrainka used to visit here. The main attraction is the nine-domed Church of the Intercession in the Baroque style, built by the outstanding architect Pavlo Hizhitskyi.

Село Піддубці розташоване в 10 кілометрах на схід від Луцька, біля траси Н-22 "Рівне - Луцьк".

Вперше згадується в 1541 році. Назву село отримало від місцевості на берегах річки Коноплянки, яка в давнину була вкрита розкішним дубовим лісом.

Тут бувала поетеса Леся Українка. Головна визначна пам'ятка - дев'ятикупольна Покровська церква в стилі бароко, побудована видатним архітектором Павлом Гіжицьким.

Holy Intercession Church

Temple , Architecture

The Holy Intercession Church in Piddubtsi is a large nine-domed cult building in the late Baroque style with elements characterizing the transition to the style of classicism.

The church was built in 1745 by Lyudvika Lubomyrska, the wife of the Kyiv voivode, according to the project of the outstanding architect Pavlo Hizhytskyi, as a Greek-Catholic church. Later, the great Hetman of Lithuania Mykhaylo Kazymyr Radzyvill decorated the church a lot. In plan, it is a cruciform church inscribed in a rotunda with one large central tower, which is adjoined on four sides by paired towers.

Lightness of forms, organic connection with the landscape and solemnity - all this distinguishes the Church of the Intercession from other churches in Volyn. The architect Hizhytskyi is also credited with the authorship of the baroque altar with columns.
