General information about Bortiatyn

The village of Bortiatyn on the Hlynets River is located on the northern outskirts of the city of Sudova Vyshnia, 40 kilometers west of Lviv. Administratively, it is part of the Yavoriv district of the Lviv region.

The first written references date back to 1442. In 1589, the wooden Church of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary was founded, on the site of which the present brick Assumption Church was built in 1936 (a wooden column bell tower from 1755 was preserved nearby).

Село Бортятин на річці Глинець розташоване на північній околиці міста Судова Вишня, за 40 кілометрів на захід від Львова. Адміністративно входить до складу Яворівського району Львівської області.

Перші письмові згадки відносяться до 1442 року. У 1589 році заснована дерев'яна церква Успення Пресвятої Богородиці, на місці якої в 1936 році звели нинішній мурований Успенський храм (поруч збереглася дерев’яна стовпова дзвіниця 1755 року). Будівництву посприяв настоятель церкви отець Василь Антонич, який оселився тут 1926 року разом із дружиною. До них у Бортятин часто навідувався їхній син, поет і письменник Богдан-Ігор Антонич (в батьківській оселі функціонує садиба-музей).

Museum-manor of the Antonych family, Bortiatyn

Antonych Family Museum-Manor

Museum / gallery , Palace / manor

The museum-manor of the family of the Ukrainian poet Bohdan-Ihor Antonych has been operating since 2009 on the territory of the former presbytery in the village of Bortiatyn in the Yavoriv region, where the family of the Greek Catholic priest Vasyl Antonych lived in the first half of the 20th century.

Their son - poet, novelist, translator, literary critic Bohdan-Ihor Antonych, author of the popular carol "God was born on a sleigh" – often came to visit them. By the centenary of his birth, the presbytery was completely restored.

In five spacious rooms there is an exposition created as a branch of the Lviv Museum of the History of Religion. In the center of the exposition is a sculpture of Bohdan-Ihor Antonych, depicted under the dome of a mirror, symbolizing the night sky covered with stars.

The museum's exhibits introduce Antonych's life and creative path, the history of the formation and development of the Greek Catholic Church in Mostyshche region. Among the authentic objects are window frames and doors from the poet's Lviv apartment, personal belongings of the Antonych family, archival photos, books, manuscripts, as well as household items donated to the exhibition by the residents of the village.

An avenue of sculptures based on Antonych's poems has been created in the yard.
