Historic area
According to local legend, some hermit settled in these places about 200-300 years ago. There are conjectures about the honorable origin of this man, but the reasons for which he was forced to renounce worldly life are not known. During the first four years, he hollowed out a cave cell in the ancient rock in which he prayed. According to legend, the hermit was killed and buried next to the cell in a stone niche.
In the 1990s, the place was restored. Every year, believers from nearby villages come to pray on the Trinity.
"Hermit's Cave" is part of the complex of monuments of the ecological trail of the same name, developed for tourists by the "Medobory" nature reserve. Also nearby are the ancient pagan settlement of Zvenyhorod and the Perlyna cave.
You can visit these sights independently by following a marked route from the village of Krutyliv, or accompanied by employees of the reserve.
