Dykivka

The Holy Epiphany Convent in Dykivka was founded in 1996 on the basis of an ancient church built in 1875 by the Serbian army under the command of Colonel Khorvat.

In 1953, the temple was closed by the Soviet authorities and turned into a granary, and then converted into a hospital.

In 1993, the temple with the adjacent buildings was handed over to the church community and the creation of the first women's monastery in the Kirovohrad region began.

The Dykivka monastery is called a family monastery, because the nuns live there with their children, and relatives come to them in the summer.

The interior decoration of the monastery church is filled with a large number of icons, including the miraculous icon of Saint Nicholas.

When entering the temple, you must take off your shoes. The territory of the monastery is well-kept, there are many flowers.
