Sts. Volodymyr and Olha Ukrainian Catholic Church

The church building is one of the landmarks of the Ukrainian Village, a historic district in northwest central Chicago.

[1] The elements contributing to the Ukrainian Greek Catholic Church's distinctiveness within the Catholic Church are the Julian Calendar, the Byzantine Rite in the Ukrainian recension, as well as a rich ethnic spiritual heritage.

Architect Yaroslav Korsunsky of Minneapolis designed the church, employing the Byzantine-Ukrainian style of 11–13th century Ukraine.

The rounded gold dome, along with a strong preference for circular patterns - avoiding almost all angular design elements - is also typical of this style.

A mosaic above the entrance depicts the Christianization of Ukraine, and there is a statue of the parish's founder, Patriarch Josyf Slipyj, who was held prisoner in the Soviet Union’s Siberian labor camps for 18 years before moving to the US.

At ground level are images of the saints, suggesting that the church is the union of heaven and earth as well as the past and the present.
