General information about Intercession Church (Bibrka)

The Church of the Intercession of the Blessed Virgin Mary in Bibrka was built in 1905-1906. It was built on the site of an old wooden church, which was walled up with stone walls.

The church with one large dome over the main nave was built according to the design of the Lviv architect Vasyl Nahirny. The building has features of the Byzantine style with elements of classicism.

The consecration ceremony of the new church was held by the Metropolitan of the UGCC Andrei Sheptytsky. He was also praying in the Bibr church when he was arrested in 1914.

Церква Покрови Пресвятої Богородиці в Бібрці збудована у 1905-1906 роках. Вона постала на місці старої дерев'яної церкви, яку обмурували кам'яними стінами.

Храм з однією великою банею над головною навою збудовано за проектом львівського архітектора Василя Нагірного. Споруда має ознаки візантійського стилю з елементами класицизму.

Чин освячення нового храму провів митрополит УГКЦ Андрей Шептицький. Він також молився у бібрській церкві, коли був заарештований 1914 року.
