General information about Jesuit Church of the Sacred Heart of Jesus (Chernivtsi)

The Roman Catholic Church of the Sacred Heart of Jesus in Chernivtsi is an excellent example of Bukovyna Neo-Gothic architecture.

The monastery complex with a slender church was built at the end of the 19th century thanks to the petitions of the missionaries of the Society of Jesus - the heirs of the Jesuit order. The project was developed by Professor Yozef Lyaytsner in the best traditions of Gothic churches in Europe.

In Soviet times, the church housed an archive, and the monastery housed an art school.

In 2010, the Church of the Most Sacred Heart of Jesus was returned to the Catholic community of Chernivtsi.

Римсько-католицький костел Найсвятішого Серця Ісуса в Чернівцях - чудовий зразок буковинської неоготики.

Монастирський комплекс із струнким костелом споруджено в кінці ХІХ століття завдяки клопотанням місіонерів Товариства Ісуса - спадкоємців ордена єзуїтів. Проєкт у найкращих традиціях готичних храмів Європи розробив професор Йозеф Ляйцнер.

За радянських часів у костелі знаходився архів, а в монастирі - училище мистецтв.

В 2010 році костел Найсвятішого Серця Ісуса повернули католицькій громаді Чернівців.
