General information about Pohonia

The village of Pohonia near Tysmenytsia is one of the great centers of Greek Catholic pilgrimage.

The first written mention of it dates back to 1634.

On the eve of the battle, Saint Nicholas the Wonderworker appeared to the governor in a dream and ordered him not to defend himself, but to boldly attack the enemy.

At the beginning of the 20th century, a new church and monastery were built in Pohonia. The miraculous icon of the Mother of God Pohonska is preserved here.

Перша письмова згадка про нього датується 1634 роком.

Напередодні битви воєводі з'явився уві сні Святий Миколай Чудотворець і наказав не оборонятися, а сміливо йти на ворога. На місці перемоги над монголо-татарами була побудована церква Успіння Пресвятої Богородиці, а там, де воєводі приснився сон - церкву Святого Миколая.

Pohonia Monastery of Assumption of Mother of God

Temple , Architecture

The Pohonia Monastery of the Assumption of the Mother of God in the village of Pohonia near Tysmenytsia is one of the great centers of Greek Catholic pilgrimage.

Here, in a small wooden church, there is a miraculous icon of the Mother of God Pohonska.

According to legend, in the 13th century, voivode Roman (perhaps the son of Danylo Halytskyi) with a small detachment defeated the army of Khan Baty here. According to legend, on the eve of the battle, Saint Nicholas the Wonderworker appeared to the voivode in a dream and ordered him not to defend himself, but to boldly attack the Tatars. On the site of Roman's victory over the Mongol-Tatars in 1634, the Church of the Assumption of the Holy Theotokos was built, and on the spot where the voivode had a dream, the Church of Saint Nicholas was built.

At the beginning of the 20th century, a new church and monastery of the Assumption of the Mother of God was built, but already in 1946 it was liquidated by the Soviet authorities. A boarding school for children with mental disorders was placed within the walls, and the church was destroyed in 1950.

The miraculous icon was preserved. In 1991, the monastery was revived. Hundreds and sometimes thousands of pilgrims flock here on holidays.
