The village of Neshcheriv is a northern suburb of Obukhiv.
It has been known since 1605 as the family estate of the rich Hudymy-Levkovychi Cossacks. According to one of the versions, the name of the village of Neshcheriv comes from the ancient name Nestor, which in Ukraine was pronounced as Neshchir.
The Transfiguration Church in Neshcheriv was built in 1794 by the landowner Ivan Hudyma-Levkovych. In 2004, a hermitage of the Ionin Monastery was opened at the church.
Село Нещерів - північне передмістя Обухова.
Відоме з 1605 року як родовий маєток багатих козаків Гудимів-Левковичів. За однією з версій, назва села Нещерів походить від стародавнього імені Нестор, яке в Україні вимовлялося як Нещір.
Спасо-Преображенська церква в Нещерові побудована ще в 1794 році поміщиком Іваом Гудимою-Левковичем. В 2004 році при храмі було відкрито скит Іонинського монастиря.
Savior and Transfiguration Church
Temple , Architecture
The Church of the Transfiguration in Neshcheriv was built in 1794 by the landowner Ivan Hudyma-Levkovych, a descendant of the Cossack elders of the Hudyma and Levkovych families.
The Church of the Transfiguration, which is shaped like a ship, is a model of architecture of the transitional period from Ukrainian Baroque to classicism. In the western corner of the temple there is a belfry with wooden shutters built into the building itself. In the basement of the church there is a crypt, the mysterious corridors of which have long given rise to legends about underground passages leading many kilometers from Neshcheriv.
In 2004, a hermitage of the Ionian Men's Monastery was opened at the Transfiguration Church. On its territory you can see an ancient Cossack cross. The church is well restored.
