Attractions of Lukiv

The Church of the Holy Great Martyr Paraskeva was built in Lukiv in 1723 at the expense of Count Petro-Mikhaylo Mönchynskyi.

It has a high gable roof with a small spire tower. The pediments are bordered by small obelisks. The side facades are decorated with pilasters and semicircular windows. There is a wooden bell tower nearby.

An example of naive painting of the 18th century has been preserved in the interior. This is an icon depicting Saint George on a disproportionately small horse.

In 1839, the Greek Catholic church was handed over to the Orthodox Church. Now it belongs to the Volodymyr Eparchy of the UOC of the Moscow Patriarchate.

The Church of Saints Anna and Stanislav the Bishop was built in Lukiv in the Renaissance style in 1595 at the expense of Stanislav Matseyovsky.

In 1708, during the attack of the Swedes, the temple was almost completely destroyed.

At the beginning of the 18th century, the church was restored with the assistance of the Volyn voivode, Atanaziy Monchynsky.

After the partition of Poland, the church was confiscated by the Russian tsarist government and handed over to the Orthodox Church as the Church of the Assumption.

After the Second World War, the Assumption Church was closed by the Soviet authorities and turned into a granary.

Currently, this is an active church in honor of Saint Anna of the Orthodox Church of Ukraine.
