Construction of the church lasted 15 years.<\/p>\n<p>A shortage of funds was felt even after the temple was completed \u2014 until 1800 the building stood without external plaster.<\/p>\n<p>The church was built in the Baroque style. The murals were executed by the well-known Polish artist Jan Solecki. His compositions \u201cAkathist to the Mother of God\u201d and \u201cThe Ascension\u201d have survived to this day. The sculptures in the church were created by a pupil of Johann Georg Pinsel \u2014 Matviy (Mateusz) Poleyovsky.<\/p>\n<p>Due to the emigration of Armenians to Hungary, there was a shortage of parishioners. In 1811\u20131826 the church was closed.<\/p>\n<p>In 1868 the Armenian church burned down (the \u201cMarmulyadova Fire\u201d). In 1870 a reconstruction was carried out that somewhat altered the appearance of the building.<\/p>\n<p>During the First World War the church was quite badly damaged \u2014 the ceiling was pierced and the fa\u00e7ade was battered. Restoration work continued from 1919 to 1930.<\/p>\n<p>Under Soviet rule a Museum of Religion and Atheism was opened in the building. In front of the church-museum stood a model of a rocket module manufactured at the local locomotive-repair plant.<\/p>\n<p>Since 1990 the building has belonged to the Ukrainian Autocephalous Orthodox Church.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/nadiyatour.com\/avtorski-ekskursii-po-ivano-frankivsku\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\u0417\u0430\u043c\u043e\u0432\u043b\u044f\u0439\u0442\u0435 \u0435\u043a\u0441\u043a\u0443\u0440\u0441\u0456\u044e \u043f\u043e \u043a\u0430\u0437\u043a\u043e\u0432\u043e\u043c\u0443 \u0456\u0441\u0442\u043e\u0440\u0438\u0447\u043d\u043e\u043c\u0443 \u0406\u0432\u0430\u043d\u043e-\u0424\u0440\u0430\u043d\u043a\u0456\u0432\u0441\u044c\u043a\u0443.<\/a><\/p>\n<a href=\"tel:380504340958\" class=\"button primary\" >\n\t\t<span>+38 050 434 09 58<\/span>\n\t<i class=\"icon-phone\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><\/a>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>An 18th-century Baroque monument with a special history and atmosphere.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":1761,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[36],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1760","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-ivano-frankivsk"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.nadiyaspeed.shop\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1760","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.nadiyaspeed.shop\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.nadiyaspeed.shop\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.nadiyaspeed.shop\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.nadiyaspeed.shop\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1760"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.nadiyaspeed.shop\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1760\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.nadiyaspeed.shop\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1761"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.nadiyaspeed.shop\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1760"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.nadiyaspeed.shop\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1760"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.nadiyaspeed.shop\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1760"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
