Description	:	Orthodox Church of the Epiphany in Ostroh. The church was built in 1521, probably on the site of an older Orthodox temple. The building was in a style combining Gothic and Byzantine elements, it had a defensive character, with thick walls and arrowslits. The building was ruined during the 17th century. In the years 1887-1891 the church was officially reconstructed. The new church has retained the spatial layout of the older one (three aisles, three apses from the east), and defensive elements in the northern wall of the building were also left. The whole thing, however, was kept in the Byzantine-Russian style.... Read More	Orthodox Church of the Epiphany in Ostroh.
