General information about Assumption Church (Verkhnia Syrovatka)

The Holy Assumption Church in Verkhnia Syrovatka was built in 1805-1812 according to the project of the poet and educator Oleksandr Palitsyn, who lived in the nearby "Popivka" estate, at the expense and under the direction of a descendant of the elder family, lieutenant Mykola Vlasovskyi. The brick and iconostasis were purchased from the dismantled Sumy monastery.

In 1844, lightning struck the bell tower and, passing inside the church, burned the gilded iconostasis, but the church survived. The Chenstokhova church icon of the Mother of God, which, according to tradition, was brought to the old wooden church by a Polish nobleman from Chenstokhova was especially revered.

Свято-Успенська церква у Верхній Сироватці була збудована в 1805-1812 роках за проєктом поета та просвітителя Олександра Паліцина, який жив у сусідньому маєтку "Попівка", коштом і під керівництвом нащадка старшинського роду поручика Миколи Власовського. Цегла та іконостас були придбані з розібраного Сумського монастиря.

У 1844 році блискавка вдарила в дзвіницю і, пройшовши всередину храму, обпалила позолоту іконостасу, але храм уцілів. Особливою пошаною користувалася храмова Ченстоховська ікона Божої Матері, яку за переказами ще до старої дерев'яної церкви приніс польський шляхтич із Ченстохови.
