Reformed Franciscan monastery and church complex

2 88 Temple

Description

The Franciscan-Reformers arrived in Yaroslavl in 1700 at the request of Antoni Kwolk, a wealthy townsman. They received from him a property on the former royal road (now John Paul II Street).

In 1704 they began construction of the wall, which lasted until 1706. In 1710-1716 the monastery complex was built, along with the Holy Trinity Church. The cost of building the monastery and church was largely borne by Kyiv's huntsman, Franciszek Zawadzki, and numerous donors. The walls of the church were initially white, and only in 1753 was the rainbow, separating the nave from the chancel, covered with polychrome. At the same time, the front of the church was covered with paintings. In 1891, the walls of the church were decorated with polychrome, which was enriched by Jan Tabinski in 1909. Also in 1909, the windows were decorated with stained glass.

In 1984-1987, the Chapel of the Divine Mercy was added to the church, while in 1987-1991 the old well from 1736 was rebuilt.

The Holy Trinity Church is a shrine to the Holy Cross. The main altar contains a statue of Christ Crucified, famous for its graces and once adorned with numerous votive offerings. In 1850-1855, a cholera epidemic prevailed in Grodzisk Dolny and the surrounding area, claiming many victims. After making a pilgrimage to Yaroslavl's Holy Trinity Church, the epidemic stopped. To commemorate this event, pilgrimages were still made before the miraculous statue of Christ Crucified on the Feast of the Exaltation of the Holy Cross until the 1980s.
