Saint Oleksandra Church
Temple , Architecture
The Church of Saint Oleksandra in Yablunivka in the Lysyanka region was built in 1838 on the site of the old church of Joseph the Betrothed, founded in 1814.
The church-like stone Orthodox church in the name of Tsarina Oleksandra was built by Countess Sofiya Potoska with her mother's Oleksandra Branitska money. The architecture of the temple is very interesting and unusual for the Dnipro region. A characteristic feature is the two bell towers above the entrance.
At the beginning of the 20th century, a church and parish school operated at the church. In the 1930s, the church was closed, the premises were used as a warehouse.
In the 1990s, the church of Saint Oleksandra was restored and returned to believers.
