Holy Assumption Nyzkynychi Monastery
Temple , Architecture
The Assumption Nyzkynychi Monastery was founded in 1643 by the famous statesman of the 17th century, the Ukrainian nobleman Adam Kysil, the last Orthodox senator of the Commonwealth of Nations, who later became the Kyiv voivode.
To create the monastery, Kysil allocated his own ancestral castle in Nyzkynychi with defensive ramparts. For ten years, he allocated significant funds to complete the construction.
The five-domed Assumption Church in the Renaissance style is an outstanding example of Ukrainian architecture of the 17th century. It is surrounded by a low stone fence, which includes a wooden two-story bell tower, which is the main entrance. Many representatives of the Kysil family are buried in the church, including the founder himself, who until the end of his life remained the main champion of Orthodoxy in the western Ukrainian lands. His grave is in the basement, the restored sarcophagus is decorated with battle bas-reliefs by Italian masters. The church also has a marble bust of Adam Kysil , his portrait and family coat of arms.
The monastery has experienced several re-subordinations, the church was closed in the middle of the 20th century, and suffered greatly during half a century of neglect.
Currently, the monastery has been revived, the church has been restored.
