The Church of the Holy Trinity, constructed of brick between 1764 and 1782, stands as a magnificent example of architectural mastery.
About the Church
Joseph Lvovich Korsak, the owner of Glubokoye, bequeathed the construction of the church in 1628. However, during the war between the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth and the Stardom of Russia in 1654, the wooden church was destroyed. In the second half of the 18th century, a new stone church was erected.
From 1902 to 1908, under the guidance of architect Zaro, the church underwent reconstruction, after which the architecture blends refined features of late Baroque with Art Nouveau. Inside the church, three wooden altars and an ambon with a forged railing from the early 20th century have been preserved, along with an organ in the neo-Gothic style. The central altar is adorned with polychrome wooden sculptures. The sanctuary houses the miraculous icon of the Mother of God ‘Podkhornaya’, as well as a sculptural representation of Jesus Christ in a compassionate image.
Today, in its majestic beauty, the Church of the Holy Trinity continues to serve the religious people, not only as a place of worship but also as a source of inspiration and spiritual awe.
