apraksts
Dedicated to the church, which is the embodiment of the best traditions of the national sacral architecture. The temple was built in the style of the Ukrainian Baroque in memory of the heroism of the Cossacks of the Chernigov regiment, which they discovered during the assault on the Turkish fortress of Azov in 1696 under the command of Colonel Yakov Lizogub. The church is located in the historic center of Chernigov, on a hill, in its form repeats the typical Cossack wooden church, erected at the expense of the Cossack brothers Jacob and Semyon Lizogubiv and consecrated in 1715.
