General information about Archangel Michael Church (Chesnyky)

The Church of Archangel Michael in Chesnyky recently celebrated its centenary. It was founded in 1906 on the initiative of the villagers, as the small old church could no longer accommodate parishioners.

The project of the new church was ordered from the famous Lviv architect Vasyl Nahirniy. In 1911, the temple was consecrated, but work continued until 1914.

Michael's Church is located on a high hill in the center of Chesnyky. Stone, cruciform, single-domed, with decorative elements of the classicist style. The ornamental and plot painting was done in 1994 by the artist Ivan Krasevych.

Церква Архістратига Михаїла у Чесниках нещодавно відсвяткувала сторічний ювілей. Її заклали у 1906 році з ініціативи мешканців села, оскільки невеликий старий храм перестав вміщати парафіян.

Проєкт нової церкви замовили у відомого львівського архітектора Василя Нагірного. В 1911 році храм було освячено, але роботи тривали до 1914 року.

Михайлівська церква розташована на високому пагорбі в центрі Чесників. Кам'яна, хрестова, однокупольна, з декоративними елементами класицистичного стилю. Орнаментальний та сюжетний розпис виконав у 1994 році художник Іван Красевич.
