General information about Haishyn

The village of Haishyn on the Trubizh River is located 5 kilometers north of Pereyaslav.

Known since the 18th century as a Cossack settlement. Roman Haisha, a Cossack, may have been the founder.

In 1870, the wooden church of John the Baptist was built, which has survived to this day.

On the north-eastern outskirts of the village are the remains of an Old Rus settlement of the 11th-13th centuries.

Село Гайшин на річці Трубіж розташоване в 5 кілометрах на північ від Переяслава.

Відоме з XVIII сторіччя як козацьке поселення. Можливо, засновником був козак Роман Гайша.

В 1870 році було побудовано дерев'яну церкву Іоанна Богослова, що збереглася донині.

The wooden church in honor of the holy apostle John the Theologian in Haishyn was built in 1870 (according to other data - in 1884).

Outside, the temple is painted blue, the pediment is decorated with carved geometric patterns. Above the central exit, on the pediment of the porch, there is an icon of the Mother of God of Kazan.
