In the face of the ongoing war with Russia, the buildings built in Ukraine should be created to ensure residents shelter in situations of life -threatening. This idea guided the creators of the concept of the Greek Catholic church of the Holy Trinity.

As explained by the magazine “Success”, the new sacred object in the capital of Ukraine is to serve not only as a place of worship, meetings of the faithful, but also as a shelter in the case of a potential attack from the air from the aggressor.
The project of an innovative church was prepared by the Kiev Arranger Architects studio. The concept of the Kiev temple is part of the creation of objects that are adapted to the current – war – situation in the country. The church of the Holy Trinity is planned in the Obolon district and combines both a unique place of religious worship with a green square and an underground anti -aircraft shelter.

The whole temple is to have 812 sq m, which is surrounded by a square with an area of over 5,000. sq m. According to the magazine “Success”, the body of the church is to be minimalist, round, which not only reflects the desire for asceticism in design, but also is to additionally express the approach to the protective values of the object.

The single -nave church was spread on the set of the cross, which – as explained by the magazine “Success” – is a nod to the traditional architecture of Ukrainian Greek Catholic temples. The maximum availability and protective function of the sacred object are also key. Faithful and other citizens will be able to get from all sides to the temple and other citizens. Each of the arms of the cross, on the set of which the church is placed, is also a separate entrance to the temple.
