Pyatnitskaya Church

Pyatnytska Church, Pyatnytska Church
Ukraine, Chernigiv
The Pyatnitskaya Church was erected at the end of the 12th - beginning of the 13th centuries and consecrated in honor of the Holy Great Martyr Paraskeva-Pyatnitsa. This is one of the few monuments of Princely times that have survived to this day. During its long existence, the church was destroyed and rebuilt more than once, almost completely changing its appearance. The Pyatnitskaya Church acquired its modern look in 1962. The three-apse temple has a central dome and an almost square base, built in the Old Russian technique. Pyatnitskaya Church is located on the territory of the square named after. Bohdan Khmelnytsky.

For more than 7 centuries, the central part of ancient Chernihiv has been decorated with this stone masterpiece - a small church in honor of Paraskeva-Friday. These mighty walls of the architectural landmark of the pre-Mongol period have not seen any historical vicissitudes! Thanks to the architect and restorer P. Baranovsky for restoring it after another invasion during the Great Patriotic War! And thank you that the square of B. Khmelnytsky, on the territory of which the church is located, has been transformed and now the church is in a worthy frame.

What we see now is 80% of the reconstruction of the Old Russian church, since the building was very significantly damaged during the War. Despite the monumentality, bricks, and a tin roof, the church has some kind of feminine beauty and elegance.
