Holy Intercession Cathedral

Temple , Architecture

The Holy Intercession Cathedral in Kiliia was built in 1822-1836 according to the project of the architect Abraham Melnikov.

Local residents call the church a "Ukrainian church" as opposed to Old Believer churches.

Saint Nicholas Church

Temple , Architecture

The unique semi-underground Saint Nicholas Church in Kiliia was founded in 1485, at the beginning of the period of Turkish rule on the Danube.

The Turks did not forbid the Orthodox to build churches, but they demanded that Orthodox churches not exceed the height of a mosque (according to another version, a janissary on a horse). In order for the building to retain its functionality, the builders had to sink it into the ground by more than 2 meters.

The church acquired its current appearance in 1891, when a high bell tower was added to it.
