Holy Trinity church, Sykhiv

Holy Trinity church, Sykhiv, Wooden church in Sykhiv district, Lviv, Ukraine.

Holy Trinity Church is a wooden church built in 1654, with a central nave painted in 1683 by Lviv masters. A porch and foundations were added in the 1870s, and a restoration in 1932 under Oleksandr Lushpynskyi removed the bell tower over the narthex and added windows. The interior preserves wall paintings of three warrior saints—Theodore Tyron, George the Victorious and Demetrius of Thessaloniki—and a new iconostasis in 17th–18th-century style.

The church was built in 1654; in 1683 Lviv masters painted its central log frame. A narthex was added and foundations strengthened in the 1870s. A 1932 restoration under architect Oleksandr Lushpynskyi removed the bell tower over the babynets and drew criticism in the newspaper Dilo. In 1974 it was transferred to the Lviv Picture Gallery, and in 1990 returned to the Sykhiv community.

The interior wall paintings date from 1683, when Lviv masters painted the central nave. Set in plant ornament are three warrior saints: Theodore Tiron, George the Victorious and Demetrius of Thessaloniki, in armour with spears and shields. Other scenes show the Passion of Christ, the Old Testament Trinity and Jonah saved from the whale; the dome carries an image of Christ Pantocrator. The small iconostasis is newer, in 17th–18th-century style.

The church stands at the corner of Sadova Street and Kolomyiska Street, with the entrance arranged from Kolomyiska side in 2006. A memorial cross marking the church's 400th anniversary stands by that entrance. The old Sykhiv cemetery lies nearby, entered from Maidan Street.

The 1683 wall paintings include three warrior saints — Theodore Tiron, George the Victorious and Demetrius of Thessaloniki — in armour with spears and shields, set in plant ornament. The same interior shows scenes of the Passion, the Old Testament Trinity and Jonah emerging from the whale; the dome carries an image of Christ Pantocrator.
