General information about Church of the Holy Martyrs of Chernihiv Prince Michael and his Boyar Fedir (Chernihiv)

The Church of the Holy Martyrs of Chernihiv Prince Michael and his Boyar Fedir is located on the banks of the Stryzhen River, on the site of the estate of the famous Colonel Pavlo Polubotko.

Before the revolution, there was a theological seminary near the church - one of the oldest educational institutions in pre-revolutionary Chernihiv. Now the buildings of the military hospital are located here.

In the world, only three churches bear the name of the holy martyrs of Chernihiv prince Mykhaylo Vsevolodovych and his boyar Fedir, who refused to bow to the Mongol idols during the invasion of Batiy and were brutally executed by the Mongols. There are such temples in Chernihiv, Moscow and a small Canadian town.

Belongs to the Orthodox Church of Ukraine.

Церква Святих мучеників Чернігівського князя Михаїла і його боярина Федора розташована на березі річки Стрижень, на місці садиби відомого полковника Павла Полуботка.

До революції біля церкви знаходилася духовна семінарія - один із найстаріших навчальних закладів дореволюційного Чернігова. Зараз тут розташовані корпуси військового шпиталю.

У світі лише три храми носять ім'я святих мучеників чернігівського князя Михайла Всеволодовича та його боярина Федора, які відмовилися вклонитися монгольським ідолам під час нашестя Батия і були жорстоко страчені монголами. Такі храми є у Чернігові, у Москві та у невеличкому канадському містечку.

Належить до Православної церкви України.
