Hrushovo

The border village of Hrushovo is located on the N-09 highway between Tyachiv and Rakhiv, at the confluence of the Apshytsia River with the Tysa River, along which the border with Romania passes. Administratively, it is part of the Tyachiv District of Zakarpattia Region.

The official date of foundation is considered to be 1380, although as early as 1241, documents mention the Hrushivsky monastery, which was burned down by the Mongol-Tatars, and which was apparently founded even earlier. In the 17th century, the Hrushivsky monastery became the center of the first printing in the Ruthenian (ancient Ukrainian) language in Transcarpathia. After several centuries of decline, in 1991 the monastery was restored as the Orthodox Hrushivsky Monastery of Archangel Michael.
