General information about Saint Nicholas Cathedral (Radomyshl)

Saint Nicholas Cathedral in Radomyshl was founded in 1864.

It was built at the same time as Volodymyrsky Cathedral in Kyiv. It was painted by students of the famous artist Viktor Vasnetsov - Pavlo Svedomskyi and Vidhelm Kotarbinskyi, as well as icon painters from Kyiv. It is assumed that the temple is partially painted based on sketches of paintings of the Kyiv Cathedral. It is possible that the Saint Nicolas Church in Radomyshl was used as a kind of creative workshop, in which artistic techniques were practiced, which were later implemented in Kyiv.

During Soviet times, a granary was built in the Saint Nicolas Church, and the bell tower was destroyed.

Currently, the Saint Nicolas Cathedral is active, restoration has been carried out.

Свято-Миколаївський собор у Радомишлі закладений у 1864 році.

Споруджувався він одночасно з Володимирським собором у Києві. Розписали його учні відомого художника Віктора Васнєцова – Павло Свєдомський та Відьгельм Котарбінський, а також художники-іконописці з Києва. Припускають, що храм частково розписано за ескізами розписів київського собору. Можливо, Миколаївська церква у Радомишлі була використана як своєрідна творча майстерня, в якій відпрацьовувалися мистецькі прийоми, реалізовані потім у Києві.

За радянських часів у Миколаївській церкві влаштували зерносховище, дзвіницю було зруйновано.

Наразі Свято-Миколаївський собор є діючим, проведено реставрацію.
