General information about Saint Nicholas Church (Vyzhniany)

The Church of Saint Nicholas in Vyzhniany was founded in 1400, although then it was most likely still wooden.

It was rebuilt several times, in particular in 1651 and 1750. In its current form, which combines Gothic and Baroque features, it was rebuilt in 1929-1931 according to the project of architect Bronislav Viktor. The fresco was painted under the supervision of the Lviv artist Stanislav Teyseyr in 1942-1943. The remains of the organ remained in the choirs.

Currently, the temple is closed, the building needs restoration.

Костел Святого Миколая у Вижнянах заснований у 1400 році, хоча тоді він, ймовірніше за все, був ще дерев'яним.

Неодноразово перебудовувався, зокрема у 1651 та 1750 роках. У нинішньому вигляді, що поєднує риси готики та бароко, відбудований у 1929-1931 роках за проєктом архітектора Броніслава Віктора. Фресковий розпис виконано під керівництвом львівського художника Станіслава Тейсейра в 1942-1943 роках. На хорах залишилися залишки органу.

Наразі храм закрито, будівля потребує реставрації.
