General information about Holy Intercession Church (Sosnytsia)

The wooden Church of the Holy Intercession is the only preserved church in Sosnytsia.

It was originally built in 1724 on the site of an ancient temple. It was completely rebuilt in 1847.

Made in the traditional forms of the Cossack temple. It looks archaic due to the unusual slope of the walls. Oil paintings on biblical subjects have been preserved in the interiors.

During Soviet times, the church was closed, the building housed a driving school, then a warehouse. In 1989, the service was resumed.

Дерев'яна Свято-Покровська церква - єдиний храм Сосниці, що зберігся.

Спочатку побудована в 1724 році на місці стародавнього храму. Повністю перебудована в 1847 році.

Виконана в традиційних формах козацького храму. Виглядає архаїчно завдяки незвичайному нахилу стін. В інтер'єрах збереглися розписи олією на біблійні сюжети.

За радянських часів храм був закритий, у будівлі розміщувалась автошкола, потім склад. У 1989 році богослужіння було відновлено.
