Ruzhyn is an urban village with a population of about 4,700 people located in the Zhytomyr region, about 100 km south-east of Zhytomyr.
The main attraction of Ruzhyn is the Catholic Church of the Body and Blood of Jesus Christ built by Count Kalinowski in the style of classicism in 1815. Ruzhyn on Google Maps. Photos by: Maxim Ritus.
In Soviet times, the church was closed, the dome was demolished, and the building was converted into car repair shops. In 2000-2008, at the expense of the Zhebrivskyi family, it was restored.
