Saviour's Hermitage

Temple , Architecture

The Chapel of the Immaculate Savior was built on the spot where, in 1888, a train carrying Russian Emperor Oleksandr III and his family derailed near the Borky station.

Many people died in the disaster, but the emperor, who was in the carriage, was miraculously unharmed, as well as members of his family. The Saviour's hermitage was founded in memory of this event.

According to the project of academician of architecture Marfeld, the Cathedral of Christ the Savior and the Chapel of the Savior Not Made by Hands were built. A hospital and a home for elderly railway workers, a school, and a library operated at the hermitage.

During the Second World War, the temple was blown up, and the chapel was badly damaged. Only in 2003 was the restoration of the chapel carried out, and the stations returned their historical name.
