The Roman Catholic Church of the Holy Trinity and Saint Michael the Archangel was built in Tuchyn in 1614 at the expense of the nobleman Mykola Semashko.
The temple burned down several times, in particular during the Liberation War of 1648-1654, when Tuchyn was captured by Maksym Kryvonos Cossacks. After the signing of the Andrusiv truce in 1667 and the return of the Poles, the church was restored.
The temple suffered the greatest destruction during the Second World War, as it served as a shelter for the defending Red Army soldiers, then for the Germans. After this war, the Trinity Church was not restored - it is still half-ruined.
