It is in Ukrainian Baroque style. This church, which is located on a hill in the historical center of the city of Chernihiv, looks like a typical wooden Cossack church. The construction of the church was paid for by Cossack brothers Yakiv and Semen Lyzohub. The church was consecrated in 1715.Interesting fact
