General information about Church of the Intercession of the Holy Mother of God (Buchach)

The Church of the Intercession of the Holy Mother of God in Buchach was built in 1764 in the late Baroque style according to the project of the architect Bernard Meretin (according to other sources - Yohan Shiltser).

The temple has a defensive character. The impression of "femininity" of the interior is created by the rounded corners and harmonious lines of the portal. The Deacon Gate, the work of the outstanding sculptor Ivan Pinzel, has been preserved.

During the revival of the Intercession Church after the Soviet period, the burials of dozens of repressed residents of the city were discovered in the basements.

Церква Покрови Пресвятої Богородиці в Бучачі збудована в 1764 році в стилі пізнього бароко за проєктом архітектора Бернарда Меретина (за іншими даними – Йогана Шільцера).

Храм має оборонний характер. Враження "жіночності" інтер'єру створюють закруглені кути та гармонійні лінії порталу. Збереглися Діаконські врата роботи видатного скульптора Івана Пінзеля.

Під час відродження Покровського храму після радянського періоду у підвалах було виявлено поховання десятків репресованих мешканців міста.
