The Church of the Transfiguration in Velykodolynske is an architectural monument of local importance.
The history of the temple begins in the middle of the 19th century. At that time, the German colony of Gross Liebenthal was located on the territory of the village of Velykodolynske. The church building is the former Evangelical-Lutheran German Church in the name of the Apostle Peter. Its construction was started by German colonists in 1845, and in 1846 the church was consecrated. Kirkha was considered an architectural masterpiece. It had octagonal columns, inside was Engelmann's organ.
In 1993, the abandoned church was handed over to the Orthodox Church of the Moscow Patriarchate. As a result of the reconstruction, its appearance has completely changed. In particular, the dome was built and the bell tower was rebuilt.

Archaeological site
Excavations at the site of the hillfort, which some researchers also associate with the 18th century Turkish fortress of Yeni-Dunya.
The hillfort is located near Cape Sychavskyi to the west of the mouth of the Tylihul estuary, near the town of Yuzhne and the village of Koshary.
According to one version, the Koshary settlement is much older, and it can be identified with the ancient city of Odesos, which gave its name to the present Odesa.
