General information about Assumption of Holy Virgin Cathedral (Stryi)

The Cathedral of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary is the main Greek-Catholic church of Stryi.

The history of the shrine originates from the church of the Franciscan monastery, known since 1608. In 1785, the Austrian authorities liquidated the Catholic monastery and handed over the religious building to the Ukrainian community.

The wooden Assumption Church was the oldest in Stryi, but due to its poor condition, it was dismantled and a new church was built on this site. The relics of Blessed Petro Verhun are kept here. The main shrine is the miraculous Lesko icon of the Mother of God.

Катедральний храм Успіння Пресвятої Богородиці – головний греко-католицький храм Стрия.

Історія святині походить від костелу монастиря францисканців, відомого з 1608 року. У 1785 році австрійська влада ліквідувала католицький монастир і передала культову споруду українській громаді.

Дерев'яний Успенський храм був найстаршим у Стрию, але через поганий стан його розібрали і побудували на цьому місці нову церкву. Тут зберігаються мощі блаженного Петра Вергуна. Головна святиня – чудотворна Ліська ікона Богоматері.
