Temple , Architecture
The Church of Saint Nicholas in Staryi Sambir has a long history.
The Catholic parish was founded in the city back in the 15th century, and a wooden church was built at the same time. In the 16th century, a stone Gothic church was built at the expense of Queen Bona Sfortsa. In 1753, it was reconstructed at the expense of the Polish king Avhust III, but a century later it fell into disrepair and was dismantled.
The current neo-Gothic church building was built in 1903 (architect Yablonsky). The interiors were painted by Lviv artist Leonard Vinterovsky.
In the 1940s, the temple was closed, the premises were used as a warehouse. In 1991, the Saint Nicholas church was returned to the Catholic community of Staryi Sambir.
