John the Theologian Church

Temple , Architecture

The Church of the Holy Apostle and Evangelist John the Theologian in Pokrovka is located on a high hill on the left bank of the Tylihul River.

The foundation of the church took place in 1894, and the consecration took place in 1911. The construction was carried out at the expense of General Semenov and the landowner Kondratskyi.

The temple is made in pseudo-Rus style, made of red brick, has 11 domes. In Pokrovka, there is an opinion that the Church of John the Theologian is a copy of Saint Michael's Cathedral in Vienna or Saint Isaac's Cathedral in St. Petersburg.

During the Second World War, the Church of John the Theologian was used as an infirmary. Returned to the Orthodox community in 1989.
