About

Church of the Holy Trinity (Ukrainian: Церква святої Тройці) was a Greek Catholic parish church (UGCC) in Chortkiv of the Ternopil Oblast.

In 1607, a captain in the Polish army, Mykhailo Yakiv, founded the Basil of Caesarea Monastery and the Church of the Holy Trinity on Mount Yurchynskykh.

The monastery church was brick, single-domed, and cruciform. The church had two doors – the main western and the side southern ones.

The condition of the church was not very good, and the monks thought about building a new brick church. The project was commissioned by the grandfather of Chortkiv, Joachim Potocki, and approved by Athanasius Szeptycki. But it was never realized.
