Fire station

Museum / gallery , Architecture

The firefighting museum opened in 2020 in the restored premises of the old fire station in the village of Dibrivka in the Rivne region.

The fire station in Dibrivka was built by Czech colonists, who in 1923 founded the first volunteer fire brigade here, which was part of the Association of Voluntary Fire Protection. The number of team members was 22 people. The team went to the fire in a radius of 5 kilometers.

During Soviet times, the building was adapted for economic purposes, and for a long time it stood empty. It was restored by the joint efforts of the Emergency Department of the Rivne region and local patron Roman Stasyuk.

Now the fire station in Dibrivka has an authentic appearance. It houses a museum exposition, which presents firefighting equipment from the beginning of the 20s of the 20th century. There is an information stand nearby.

Holy Assumption Church

Temple , Architecture

The Assumption Church in Dorohobuzh is one of the oldest in Volyn. It was founded in the 11th century, when Dorohobuzh was the center of a separate principality of the Ryurykovychi princes.

For a long time, an Orthodox monastery operated near the church. In 1577 (according to other sources - in 1582), on the initiative of Prince Vasyl Ostrozky, the Assumption Church was completely rebuilt with the inclusion of fragments of the ancient Rus plinth masonry.

The building is rectangular in plan, single-nave, single-headed, with a rectangular apse strengthened by two corner buttresses.

From 1644 to 1834, the monastery was Basilian (Greek Catholic). During this period, two cell buildings were added to the temple, which have not survived. After the temple was returned to the Orthodox Church, a wooden bell tower was added to it.

The Church of the Assumption is a unique example of Ukrainian architecture of the XI-XVII centuries, in which the traditions of Old Rus architecture are combined with the Baroque style and some later architectural techniques.
