General information about Saints Borys and Hlib Cathedral (Museum of Architecture) (Chernihiv)

Saints Borys and Hlib Cathedral was built in Chernihiv in the 12th century on the foundation of an older stone building of the 11th century, and was rebuilt several times.

During the restoration in the middle of the XX century the buildings returned to the old Rus forms. The interior has preserved ancient frescoes, inlaid floor.

A museum of architecture has been opened in the church, which is part of the National Architectural and Historical Reserve "Ancient Chernihiv".

The administration of the reserve is located in the adjacent building of the Collegium (1672), which in the XVII century was part of the Saints Borys and Hlib Monastery - the residence of the Chernihiv metropolitans.

Борисоглібський собор збудований в Чернігові в XII столітті на фундаменті давнішої кам'яної споруди XI століття, неодноразово перебудовувався.

Під час реставрації в середині XX століття будівлі повернули давньоруські форми. В інтер'єрі збереглися старовинні фрески, інкрустована підлога.

В приміщенні храму відкрито музей архітектури, який входить до складу Національного архітектурно-історичного заповідника "Чернігів стародавній".

Адміністрація заповідника розміщена в розташованій поруч будівлі Колегіуму (1672 рік), який у XVII столітті був частиною Борисоглібського монастиря - резиденції чернігівських митрополитів.
