General information about Cross of Ascension (Nicolas) Church (Izium)

The Cross of Ascension Church in Izium was built at the expense of the parishioners instead of two outdated wooden churches of the 18th century.

Initially, it was made in the style of classicism, but during its more than one and a half century history, it was rebuilt several times.

It was closed in Soviet times.

The paintings of the dome and the oil painting on the walls, made by the artists of Viktor Vasnetsov's school, have been preserved. Only the lower tier of the belfry adjoining from the west has been preserved.

The Church of the Ascension of Holy Cross (Nicolas) was heavily damaged by Russian shelling in March 2022 during the full-scale Russian invasion of Ukraine.

Хрестовоздвиженська церква в Ізюмі побудована коштом парафіян замість двох застарілих дерев'яних храмів XVIII сторіччя.

Спочатку була виконана в стилі класицизму, але за свою більш ніж півторавікову історію неодноразово перебудовувалася.

За радянських часів була закрита.

Збереглися розписи купола та олійний живопис на стінах, виконаний художниками школи Віктора Васнєцова. Від дзвіниці, що примикає із заходу, зберігся лише нижній ярус.

Хрестовоздвиженська (Миколаївська) церква була сильно пошкоджена внаслідок російських обстрілів у березні 2022 року в ході повномасштабного російського вторгнення в Україну.
