Nativity of Holy Virgin Church

Temple , Architecture

The Church of the Nativity of the Virgin in the village of Hoholiv is mentioned in "Journey of Antiochian Patriarch Macarius to Russia" by Pavlo of Aleppsky (1656), but it has not survived to this day.

The current wooden Church of the Nativity of the Holy Virgin was built in 1827 on the site of the old Cossack church. The church was rebuilt several times: in 1861, a bell tower was added to the architectural ensemble, in 1880, reconstruction was carried out and the five-part church became a nine-part one.

During the Soviet rule, the church remained active for a long time, it was closed only in the 1960s. In 1988, divine services were resumed, and in 1995, the church was handed over to the UOC of the Moscow Patriarchate.

Among the features: on the porch from the side of the bell tower, the All-Seeing Eye looks down on the parishioners.
