Temple , Architecture
The neo-Gothic church of Saint Clare, located on the shore of a small pond in Horodkivka, can be mistaken for a medieval castle from a distance.
In the architecture of this unusual structure for Central Ukraine, a close interweaving of Romanesque and Gothic styles can be traced, emphasized by a combination of wild stone and red brick.
The initiator of the construction of the church of Saint Clare was the Polish memoirist Yevstakhiy Ivanovsky, who lived in Halayimhorodok (the former name of Horodkivka). The writer wanted to build a temple in honor of the heavenly patroness of his mother, Klara Ivanovska. He did not have time to fulfill his promise, but dying, he bequeathed it to others. In 1912, the church of Saint Clare was still built at the expense of Romuald Zhmihrodzky.
The church is an architectural monument of local importance. Today, the temple belongs to the Roman Catholic order of the Discalced Carmelites.
