No comments · Posted by Sergei Rzhevsky in Photos, Regions, Travel
Murafa is a village with a population of about 2,700 people located in Shargorod district of the Vinnytsia region.
The main attraction of the village is the Catholic Church of the Immaculate Conception of the Blessed Virgin Mary founded by the monks Dominicans in 1624.
After the reconstruction, the church preserved Baroque features. It remained open for believers even during the Soviet period. That’s why not only the external decoration but also the interiors with stucco, stained glass, murals were perfectly preserved. Catholic Church in Murafa on Google Maps. Photos by: Maxim Ritus.
