Hmelnytskyy, Ukraine
4.9 / 40
The Church of St. Anne is a hidden gem located far from the center, but it is definitely worth a visit. Transportation to the church is accessible by minibus #50, and if you have the opportunity, it is recommended to bring something for the homeless dogs that can be found nearby. If you are interested in history, the cemetery where the church is situated may hold some interesting burials.
This quiet and cozy place is filled with good-hearted individuals. Attending local liturgies and engaging with the community provided a sense of belonging and support when needed. The services and sermons held here are beneficial even for those who do not identify with the Catholic community. It is important to note that participation in any activities is voluntary, and no one will pressure you to make donations or open up if you are not ready.
The Church of St. Anne holds significant historical importance as one of the few functioning Roman Catholic churches during the Soviet era. The spacious church, located within the cemetery, belongs to the Jesuits and is accompanied by a retreat house. The serene surroundings of nature and the peacefulness of the cemetery create an atmosphere conducive to deep self-reflection.
Overall, the Church of St. Anne is a beautiful and unique place that exudes love and joy. It stands as a testament to the thousands of Poles who lost their lives in these areas due to the Soviets of Jeżów. Whether you are seeking spirituality, a connection with history, or simply a serene setting to find solace, this church welcomes you with open arms.
