All Saints Church

All Saints Church, Orthodox church in Kyiv Pechersk Lavra, Ukraine.

All Saints Church stands over the Economic Gate on the northern edge of the Kyiv Pechersk Lavra's upper territory, closing off Economic Street. Built in Ukrainian Baroque, it is a two-tiered, five-domed cross-plan structure: the gate passage and storerooms occupy the lower tier, while the church itself fills the upper tier, with all five domes opening into the interior. A rectangular bell-tower-like sacristy adjoins the east side.

Built in 1696–1698 with funds from Hetman Ivan Mazepa, at the same time as the Economic Gate it stands above. A fire on the night of 21–22 April 1718 destroyed the first iconostasis; a new one was finished in the Lavra workshop in 1741. In 1926 the church entered the Kyiv-Pechersk Preserve, and until 1949 it housed the State Archive of Kyiv Oblast.

The church is dedicated to All Saints, a feast celebrated on the first Sunday after Pentecost. Above the entrance door a stylised Old Rus' inscription reads "Дивенъ Богъ во святыхъ своихъ" (God is wondrous in His saints). The 1906 murals follow the church's dedication, and ornamental panels echo Ukrainian folk patterns.

You enter from the south side through a main entrance with a pediment, then climb substantial oak steps that lead inside. The interior features domed spaces with windows, making it easy to move through and see the different areas of the church.

The church's murals were painted in May–August 1906 by students of the Lavra icon-painting workshop under Ivan Yizhakevych, not by a team of twenty-two artists. Hieromonk Volodymyr planned the composition layout, and the Lavra Spiritual Council approved the watercolour sketches. Some compositions were the students' own designs.
