Attractions of Kaharlyk

The Holy Trinity Church in Kaharlyk was restored on the same place where it was built in 1800 at the expense of landowner Dmytro Troshchynskyi.

The temple stood directly opposite the Troshchynskyi palace, from which the park surrounding it has been preserved. The rector of the church was the writer Vasyl Kapnist for some time. The famous artist Volodymyr Borovykovskyi painted the "Last Supper" icon for her.

During the Soviet era, the church was destroyed. In 1998, the first stone in the foundation of the new Trinity Church was consecrated. Currently, the construction of the temple, which was carried out with donations from entrepreneurs, organizations and residents of the city, has been completed.
