National Historical and Archaeological Reserve "Kamyana Mohyla"

Museum / gallery , Natural object , Archaeological site

The National Historical and Archaeological Reserve "Kamyana Mohyla" (literally - "Stone Grave") is located in the village of Myrne near Melitopol.

A gigantic pile of stones up to 12 meters high - the remains of the sandstone of the former Sarmatian Sea. The shape resembles a mound, which is where the name comes from. It has been used as a sanctuary since ancient times. Many stones are covered with images of the Paleolithic, Mesolithic, Copper-Bronze and Middle Ages (from the 16th-13th millennia BC to the 10th-12th centuries).

Some researchers believe that the writings of the Stone Tomb are more archaic than the writing of Sumer, and are the oldest examples of writing on Earth. In order to preserve the petroglyphs, the passages to them are covered with sand. Copies can be seen in the building of the "Kamyana Mohyla" (Stone Grave) museum-reserve. The 7,000-year-old fish-man sculpture is especially impressive.

During the large-scale Russian invasion of Ukraine, the "Kamyana Mohyla" (Stone Grave) reserve was located on the territory occupied by Russian troops. In April 2022, the occupiers mined all approaches and the territory of the reserve. In November of the same year, the Russian occupation authorities transferred the "Kamyana Mohyla" (Stone Grave) reserve to the management of the "Khersones Tavriyskyi" museum-reserve in the previously annexed Sevastopol. The "Kamyana Mohyla" (Stone Grave) Museum was robbed.

Oleksandr Nevsky Cathedral

Temple , Architecture

The Cathedral of the Holy Prince Oleksandr Nevsky of Melitopol was built in 1815-1831.

Since the city of Melitopol was then called Novooleksandrivka, they decided to name the church in honor of Grand Duke Oleksandr Nevsky.

At first, the church was wooden, then it was rebuilt in stone.

Today, the Oleksandr Nevsky Cathedral is active.

Saint Sava the Consecrated Monastery

Temple

The Melitopol Men's Monastery of Saint Sava the Sanctified is one of the newly created monasteries of Ukraine. The decision to create it was made in 1994.

The Melitopol Church of the Beheading of John the Baptist actually became the courtyard of the monastery, and the governor's permanent stay there moved the monastery from the village of Terpinnia there as well. In May 1995, the construction of the first one-story building began. In 2005, the construction of the new temple was completed. The central side altar was consecrated in honor of the icon of the Mother of God "Ghosts of Humility", the northern one in honor of the Beheading of John the Baptist, and the southern one in honor of the heavenly patron of the monastery, Saint Sava the Consecrated.

It belongs to the UOC of the Moscow Patriarchate. In September 2022, during the Russian occupation of Melitopol during the Russian-Ukrainian war, the monks of the monastery of Saint Sava the Consecrated openly supported the Russian invasion of Ukraine and gave their monastery to the Russian occupiers to organize a pseudo-referendum. The Security Service of Ukraine collected evidence of the monastery abbot's collaborative activities, and in December 2022 personal sanctions for a period of 5 years were introduced against the head of the monastery Oleksandr Prokopenko and six other figures of the Russian Orthodox Church.
