Church of the Protection of the Mother of God, Kobylany

Церковь Покрова Божией Матери в Кобылянах
PolandКобыляны (гмина Тересполь)1890Public buildings
The masonry parish church was built on the site of an earlier wooden one and consecrated in 1890; the village was then part of the Kingdom of Poland within the Russian Empire, and from 1875 the parish belonged to the Chełm–Warsaw eparchy of the Russian Orthodox Church. Sources differ on the designer: the website of the Lublin–Chełm diocese names the architect W. Przecławski, Polish Wikipedia names Viktor Sychugov. After the residents were evacuated in 1915 the church stood unused for several years; today it is a parish church of the Terespol deanery, restored under the East Slavic cultural heritage conservation project.
Каменная приходская церковь построена на месте прежней деревянной и освящена в 1890 году; село тогда входило в Царство Польское в составе Российской империи, а приход с 1875 года относился к Холмско-Варшавской епархии Русской православной церкви. Сведения об авторе проекта расходятся: сайт Люблинско-Холмской епархии называет архитектора В. Пшецлавского, польская Википедия — Виктора Сычугова. После отъезда жителей в эвакуацию в 1915 году храм несколько лет не действовал; сегодня это приходская церковь Тереспольского благочиния, отреставрированная в рамках проекта сохранения восточнославянского культурного наследия.
