General information about Saint Onuphrius Church (Husiatyn)

The Church of Saint Onuphrius in Husiatyn was built in the 16th century, when the defense system of the medieval city was being formed, which also included a castle and a synagogue.

Together with the church, they formed a fortified triangle with the town hall square inside. The thickness of the walls of the temple reaches 2.2 meters. The upper battle tier has not been preserved. It was probably a wooden gallery around the perimeter of the tower. The walls around the temple have been preserved.

During the Turkish rule of 1672-1683, the Saint Onuphrius Church was rebuilt into a mosque.

Today it is an active Greek Catholic church.
