Собор святого рівноапостольного князя Володимира зведений в Шептицькому на початку XVIII століття у стилі бароко як католицький костел Зіслання святого Духа у монастирському комплексі бернардинів.

Є найдавнішою спорудою міста, найбільш помітна будівля Шептицького.

Заснований у 1692 році разом із монастирем римо-католицького ордена бернардинців. Після пожежі, що знищила дерев'яні споруди, комплекс був відбудований в камені в 1760 році коштом Юзефа-Феліціана Потоцького. Інтер'єри розписали Джузеппе Бальцані та Станіслав Строїнський.

У 1951 році храм було закрито. В 1988 році будівлю було передано православній громаді, перебудувано під православний храм та переосвячено на православну церкву святого рівноапостольного князя Володимира.
