    This is a new cathedral dedicated before the Easter of 2004.
    It is located in what we call Southern Settlement, to the left of the first circle after Syeverodonetsk, behind the palace of culture.
    Its construction lasted for three years.
    The church is unique as to its architecture – both interior and exterior.
    The church was called after the holy icon of Pochayiv, a town in Ternopil region where the famous Pochaiv Monastery is located.
    The cathedral dean Father Vladimir says there are no such cathedrals in Luhansk region.
    There is another cathedral next to this new one. It is called St.Seraphim's Cathedral and is located in the old two-storey building.
    St.Nickolas Chapel in Smirnov Street located opposite the city militia headquarters is the newest in Rubizhne.
    It was dedicated in January 2009.

    Another new cathedral has been built in the so-called 7th District in Lenin Street.
    It is the biggest in the city.
    It has a very special exterior and interior, too.
    It is called Holy Assumption Cathedral.
    If you want to see that cathedral, drive along Lenin Street after its crossing with Mendeleyev Street.

  • Tip Rating:
  • This is School #3 where I studied from 1967 till 1977.
    It is one of the ten city schools and is located in Students Street, five minutes walk from our apartment house where I used to live.
    Here is a view of the central entrance to my school (from Students Street) where I spent ten years in the good old times...

    General the Liberator
    General Ivanov Street is one of the longest in Rubizhne.
    It is more than 2.5 kilometers long.
    It runs parallel to Detour Road between Kotsiubinsky Street and Mira Street (Peace Street).
    The street was called in honor of General Nickolay Ivanov whose division - the 41st Guards Infantry Division - liberated Rubizhne from Nazi invaders on January 31, 1943.
    The street was called after General Ivanov in 1967.
    There is Ivanov monument at the crossing of Ivanov Street and International Street.

    Ruins of the Past Glory
    The old palace of culture in ruins... - Rubizhne
    The old palace of culture in
    ruins...
    by hunterV, 4 more photos

    I am sorry our old Palace of Culture called Kirov Palace of Culture lies in ruins.
    You can't pass it if you walk down Kirov Street and then farther to Smirnov Street.
    But, please, now it's too late to explore it: the building is falling apart after local bums have "processed it".
    This huge building dates back to 1934.
    It must have been a great site for its time.
    Its wall reach the height of a modern nine-storey aoartment or even higher.
    It was built of local bricks manufactured in Rubizhne and represented the Triumph of the Stalin Era.
    I remember going there. I went to the movies, to the library or to see a new play and see a new concert.
    Its Big Hall was a masterpiece of Soviet architecture.

    If you find yourself in the Old Town - Kalinin Street, Academician Pomeranchuke Street, Students' Street and Lenin Street, you will see how the city developed.
    Lenin Street is an example of the city development.
    It starts with old one-floor mansions or two-floor dormitory-like apartment houses built in the twenties and ends with the only 14-floor apartment house in the city built in 1992.

    If you walk down Kirov Street from Bohdan Khmelnitsky Street towards the main entrance to the city park, you can see samples of th Empire style apartment houses on both sides of the street.
    They are mostly three-storeyed apartment houses made of local bricks.
    I am sorry our main entrance to the city park has long been scavanged, then fixed and then savagely scavanged again.
    You have to walk past this scavanged antrance if your aim is Caesar cafe or St.George's Cathedral.
    Also I am sorry the local authorities do not find any means to restore the Old Glory in the city park.
