Religious, Spiritual sights in Chernihiv

  1. St Pareskevy Pyatnytsi Church

    St Pareskevy Pyatnytsi Church is named after the patroness of the large outdoor market that once occupied pl Chervona. Despite its sturdy, fortress-like appearance only about one-third of the church survived WWII. With its imposing brick walls and single cupola, it reflects the style popular when it was built in the 12th century - a style epitomized by the Nereditsa Church in Novgorod.

  2. St Catherine's Church

    Lining the southwestern edge of the Val (ramparts) is a row of 18th-century cannons, from where you get a prime view of the five sparkling golden domes of St Catherine's Church in the immediate foreground. This is the church you see from several kilometres away if you drive into town from Kyiv.

  3. Boryso-Hlibsky Cathedral

    The 12th-century Boryso-Hlibsky Cathedral is in the same short, squat style as the Pareskevy Pyatnytsi Church. It’s worth visiting for the stunning silver Royal Doors, commissioned by the famous Cossack leader Ivan Mazepa.
