Saint Nicholas Cathedral
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 Nicholas 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 Nicholas Church, and the bell tower was destroyed.
Currently, the Saint Nicholas Cathedral is active, restoration has been carried out.
