The village of Horodkivka on the Huyva River is located 15 kilometers south of Andrushivka.
It was first mentioned in 1635 as Khalayimiv - the property of the Khalayimy brothers. Some researchers believe that in this place in the 16th century there was a fortified town of Skorhorodok, founded by Prince Kyryk Ruzhynsky on the Black Route of Crimean Tatar raids (according to another version, Skorhorodok is Ruzhyn). Later, Khalayimiv was owned by Zamoyski and Konetspolski.
The unique church of Saint Clare, built in 1912 on the initiative of the Polish memoirist Yevstakhiy Ivanovsky, who lived in Khalayimiv, has been preserved.
In 1946, the village was renamed Horodkivka.
Село Городківка на річці Гуйва розташоване в 15 кілометрах на південь від Андрушівки.
Вперше згадується в 1635 році як Халаїмів - власність братів Халаїмів. Деякі дослідники вважають, що на цьому місці в XVI сторіччі існувало укріплене містечко Скоргородок, засноване князем Кириком Ружинським на Чорному шляху набігів кримських татар (за іншою версією, Скоргородок - це Ружин). Пізніше Халаїмовом володіли Замойські та Конєцпольські.
Зберігся унікальний костел Святої Клари, побудований в 1912 році за ініціативи польського письменника-мемуариста Євстахія Івановського, який проживав в Халаїмові.
В 1946 році село було перейменоване на Городківку.
Saint Clare Church
Temple , Architecture
The neo-Gothic church of Saint Clare, located on the shore of a small pond in Horodkivka, can be mistaken for a medieval castle from a distance.
In the architecture of this unusual structure for Central Ukraine, a close interweaving of Romanesque and Gothic styles can be traced, emphasized by a combination of wild stone and red brick.
The initiator of the construction of the church of Saint Clare was the Polish memoirist Yevstakhiy Ivanovsky, who lived in Halayimhorodok (the former name of Horodkivka). The writer wanted to build a temple in honor of the heavenly patroness of his mother, Klara Ivanovska. He did not have time to fulfill his promise, but dying, he bequeathed it to others. In 1912, the church of Saint Clare was still built at the expense of Romuald Zhmihrodzky.
The church is an architectural monument of local importance. Today, the temple belongs to the Roman Catholic order of the Discalced Carmelites.
