General information about Kyriivka

The village of Kyriivka is located on the right bank of the Ubed River, 10 kilometers northeast of Sosnytsia.

It was founded at the beginning of the 17th century when the northern lands were settled by Ukrainian Cossacks and people from Muscovy. Probably, the first settler was called Kyrei, hence the name.

The Orthodox church in Kyriivka existed since 1638, and a parish school was opened in 1894. In 1904, the current wooden Transfiguration Church was built.

The former cultural center has now been transformed into the Kyriivka Center of Folk Traditions and Customs.

Село Киріївка на правому березі річки Убедь розташоване в 10 кілометрах на північний схід від Сосниці.

Засноване на початку XVII сторіччя при заселенні сіверських земель українськими козаками та вихідцями з Московії. Ймовірно, першого поселенця звали Кірей, звідки пішла назва.

Православний храм в Киріївці існував з 1638 року, при ньому в 1894 році відкрилася парафіяльна школа. В 1904 році була збудована нинішня дерев'яна Преображенська церква.

Колишній будинок культури в наш час перетворений на Киріївський центр народних традицій та звичаїв.
