Saint Panteleimon Church

Temple , Architecture

The Church of Saint Panteleimon is the only surviving building of Ancient Halych from the princely era.

The construction of the temple on the northeastern outskirts of the city was completed in 1194. It was founded by Galicia-Volyn bishop Roman Mstyslavych, naming it in honor of his grandfather, Prince Izyaslav of Kyiv, whose Christian name was Panteleimon.

In the 14th century, the church was transformed into the church of Saint Stanislaus, and in the 16th century, reconstruction was carried out and a Franciscan monastery with a bell tower, defensive ramparts and monastic premises was opened.

After the First World War, the Panteleimon Church was abandoned for a long time, restored in 1998, consecrated by Greek Catholics.

Ancient graffiti have been preserved on the walls, in particular the famous blossoming cross, which became the emblem of the National Reserve "Ancient Halych" and the coat of arms of the modern city.
