Holy Intercession Church
The Holy Intercession Church in Baturyn is one of the churches of the hetman's capital, the confessional of Hetman Ivan Mazepa.
The first wooden church, built on this site in the 17th century, burned down during the Baturyn tragedy, arranged by the Russians.
The five-domed stone temple was rebuilt in 1789 in the Ukrainian Baroque style. Nearby was the building of the church and parish school.
The Holy Intercession Church complex was completely destroyed by the Bolsheviks in 1936.
The revival of the church began in 2000 at the expense of the Ukrainian diaspora, and after 8 years the restored Intercession Church was consecrated.
