Church of St. Mary of the Perpetual Assistance, Ternopil

The local Soviet authorities decided to demolish the church, and on their orders it was blown up in 1954.

The crowded ceremony was attended by processions from the surrounding villages: Bila, Dovzhanka, Domamorych, Dychkiv, Velykyi Hlybochok, Ivanivka, Kurovets, Kutkovets and Pronyatyn.

In May 1908, newspapers reported on the consecration of a cross on the dome of the church, which was blessed by the Marianist wife of the ladies.

In November of the same year, the city council purchased an altar with a coat of arms for 3000 crowns.

In 1909-1910, a generous gift was received from Ludwik Punchert - marble statues of the crucified Jesus Christ and the Mother of God.

In 1911, the pediment of the building was decorated with another beautiful gift - marble statues of the Evangelist John and St. Joseph by the famous Lviv carver Petro Voitovych.

The carvings were made by carver Yanina Reichert, assisted by a talented self-taught artist, Ukrainian Nazarko.
