Saint John the Theologian Church

Temple , Architecture

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

The temple is single-domed, eight-by-four in shape, with an attached belfry. The height of the building is 25 meters. 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. Above the porch, at the height of the middle tier, there is a full-length icon of John the Theologian. The interior is painted with biblical scenes by local artist Oleksiy Kondratenko.

A parochial school operated at the church.

In 1935, the church was closed by order of the Soviet authorities, but in 1942 the services were resumed and have not stopped since then.

Currently, the church of John the Theologian is in good condition.
