Attractions of Lubny

The luxurious building of the women's diocesan school adorns the center of the city of Lubny.

The building was built in 1907 according to the project of the famous architect, academician of architecture Oleksiy Beketov at the expense of the candle factory of the diocese. The school opened the following year.

The Holy Trinity Church in Lubny is located in the building of the former dormitory of the medical school in Nyzhniy Val, although until 1961 it was the central and largest church of the city.

The wooden Trinity Church was first mentioned in 1622. It stood until 1869, when a white stone five-domed temple was erected in place of the old temple, which beautified and ennobled the central square of the city.

In 1960, under the pretext of clearing the site for the construction of a hotel, the Trinity Church was moved to an unsuitable building on the outskirts of the city, and the church in the city center was blown up.

Today, the church has been rebuilt in classical Orthodox forms.
