General information about Intercession Church (Carmelite Monastery) (Bar)

The Carmelite monastery was founded in Bar in 1531, but soon the wooden buildings were destroyed.

In 1616, the construction of a college and a Jesuit monastery was started on the ruins. It, in turn, was destroyed during the Liberation War of 1648-1654, but the stone monastery building was partially preserved. Reconstruction began in 1701 and continued intermittently until 1787.

The church and the cell building are made in the form of a single building in the Baroque style, which looks little like a temple. In 1908, the belfry over the gate was built.

For some time, the complex belonged to the Orthodox Church, but now its owners are Benedictine missionary sisters.

Кармелітський монастир був заснований у Барі в 1531 році, проте невдовзі дерев'яні споруди було зруйновано.

В 1616 році на руїнах було розпочато будівництво колегіуму та монастиря єзуїтів. Він, своєю чергою, був зруйнований під час Визвольної війни 1648-1654 років, але кам'яна монастирська споруда частково збереглася. В 1701 році розпочалася реконструкція, що тривала з перервами до 1787 року.

Костел і келійний корпус виконані у вигляді єдиної будівлі в  стилі бароко, яка зовні мало нагадує храм. В 1908 році була споруджена надбрамна дзвіниця.

Якийсь час комплекс належав православній церкві, але зараз його господарями є сестри бенедиктинки-місіонерки.
