Assumption of Holy Virgin Church
The Church of the Assumption of the Holy Virgin Mary was built in Novyi Bykiv in 1801-1804 in the Empire style by order of Count Kyrylo Rozumovsky, the last Hetman of Ukraine.
The cruciform structure has an elongated western vestibule, which is combined with a two-story belfry. The western, southern and northern entrances are decorated with four-column porticoes of the Tuscan order with triangular pediments. The church is crowned by a hemispherical dome with a hollow lantern.
In its forms, the church is identical to the Church of the Resurrection in Baturyn, the residence of Rozumovsky.
Assumption Church belongs to the community of the Orthodox Church of Ukraine.
