Kyiv Ukraine
Ukrainian Orthodox
The church is part of a memorial complex dedicated to the Chernobyl tragedy in the Tatarka neighborhood. The church was planned to be the first part of the memorial for the 10th anniversary in 1996. Actual construction didn't begin until 2006. The building was planned to look like a sarcophagus over the 4th Chernobyl reactor. It was damaged by debris from a Russian ballistic missile on March 21, 2024. Windows and doors are broken, icons shattered, and a nearby chapel destroyed.
