Saint George's Church
The Church of the Holy Great Martyr George the Victorious is the oldest building in the city of Liuboml.
It was built by order of Prince Volodymyr Vasylkovych in the 13th century. At first, it resembled the Dormition Cathedral in Volodymyr. The name of the Volyn architect Oleksa, who built the temple, is well-known.
The second part of the Galician-Volyn Chronicle was written here.
In the 16th century, the Saint George Church was radically rebuilt, and in the 18th century, a bell tower was added to it.
Paintings of the 19th century have been preserved.
