Holy Intercession Church

Temple , Architecture

The Holy Intercession Church in Piddubtsi is a large nine-domed cult building in the late Baroque style with elements characterizing the transition to the style of classicism.

The church was built in 1745 by Lyudvika Lubomyrska, the wife of the Kyiv voivode, according to the project of the outstanding architect Pavlo Hizhytskyi, as a Greek-Catholic church. Later, the great Hetman of Lithuania Mykhaylo Kazymyr Radzyvill decorated the church a lot. In plan, it is a cruciform church inscribed in a rotunda with one large central tower, which is adjoined on four sides by paired towers.

Lightness of forms, organic connection with the landscape and solemnity - all this distinguishes the Church of the Intercession from other churches in Volyn. The architect Hizhytskyi is also credited with the authorship of the baroque altar with columns.
