Cathedral of the Virgin

The Great Choral Synagogue is the oldest synagogue in Kyiv, built in 1895 in a Moorish revival style. Its construction was financed by Gabriel Yakob Rozenberg, a merchant.

The exact period of the cemetery’s establishment is unknown. According to the epigraphic data, it already existed in the late 18th century. It appears on old maps since the 1870s.

The Ar-Rahma Mosque was built between 1996 and 2011 for the Muslim community in Kyiv. In 1897, according to official data, 1759 Muslims lived in Kyiv. On 3 October 1897, by decision of the city administration, a house of prayer was opened in a house, a two-storey wooden building which has not survived to the present day. On 29 October 1913, Governor Mikhail Sukovkin laid the foundation stone of the first stone mosque in Gogolivska Street. However, the mosque was not built during the First World War, then during the October Revolution, and later the construction was hampered by the Second World War.
