General information about Holy Trinity Church (Sunky)

The wooden Holy Trinity Church was built in Sunky in 1864, when the village was owned by Sofiya Rayevska, the daughter of the famous general Mykola Rayevskyi.

In 1937, the church was closed by the Soviet authorities and converted into a collective farm utility room, and the domes were removed at the same time. The church was revived in 1941 during the German occupation, and services in it have not stopped since then.

Princess Hanna Yashvil (Orlova), granddaughter of General Rayevskyi, is buried in the courtyard of the Trinity Church. There is another older tombstone, but the inscriptions on it have faded.

Дерев'яна Свято-Троїцька церква збудована в Сунках в 1864 році, коли селом володіла Софія Раєвська, донька знаменитого генерала Миколи Раєвського.

В 1937 році храм було закрито радянською владою та переобладнано під колгоспне підсобне приміщення, тоді ж було знято куполи. Церква відродилася в 1941 році під час німецької окупації і з того часу служби в ній не припинялися.

На подвір'ї Троїцької церкви похована княгиня Ганна Яшвіль (Орлова), онука генерала Раєвського. Є ще один старіший надгробок, але написи на ньому стерлися.
