Tiachiv

The Greek-Catholic Church of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary in Tiachiv was built in 1852-1889 on the site of a wooden church.

The modern iconostasis was made in Budapest workshops. Two huge bells are installed on the tower, one of which was originally cast for the cathedral in Sighet (Romania).

In 1948, after the ban of the Greek-Catholic Church, the shrine was handed over to the Orthodox community, and only in 2009 was the Assumption Church finally returned to the Greek-Catholics.

The Reformation Church in Tiachiv was founded in the 13th century by the Hungarian king Laslo the Great as a Roman Catholic church. In 1546, the church was given to the reformers.

The temple is single-nave, rectangular in plan. In 1810, a three-tier bell tower with a tented finish was added to the western facade. An ancient clock is installed on the top tier of the bell tower. The side walls of the temple are reinforced with powerful buttresses, which give the building a special significance. The nave is covered with a wooden caisson with unique paintings of 200 pieces, among which there are images of a lion, a mermaid, a pelican, a dragon and others. Each part of the painting is a masterpiece in itself. The interior is decorated with a stylized floral ornament, similar to Ukrainian folk paintings.

Until 1944, the richest library of Maramoroschyna was kept in the Reformation Church of Tiachiv.

Next to the church there is an architecturally interesting Lutheran parish house, as well as a bronze bust of the Hungarian artist Shymon Holloshi, who lived in Tiachiv.

The church of Saint Stefan's (Ishtvan) in Tiachiv was built in 1883-1885 after the Catholic community was revived in the city, which was never able to regain the church of the reformers.

The temple was consecrated in 1888 and was named after the Hungarian king Saint Ishtvan (Stefan).

In the 1940s, the shrine was closed, services resumed only in 1988. The organ of 1890 has been preserved. It is interesting that the clock on the bell tower is not real, but painted.
