Zarvanytsia. Sobor of the Mother of God

Zarvanytsia (Ukrainian: Зарваниця) is a small village in the Ternopil' Oblast of Ukraine. The village is located about 50 kilometers to the south-west of Ternopil'.

The village is known for its miracle-working icon of the Mother of God (dated back to 1240) which is the primary pilgrimage destination among the shrines of the Ukrainian Greek Catholic Church.

In 2000 Cardinal Lubomyr Husar celebrated the first Mass in the newly built sobor of the Mother of God of Zarvanytsia. The new church, visible far outside the village and well inscribed into the landscape, has a single nave Byzantine cross-dome plan with five cupolas representing Christ and the four Evangelists.

The Church of St. Antony (1533-1916) (Korets, Rivne Oblast) and the Catolic Church of the Assumption of the Virgin Mary (Ostroh, Rivne Oblas) are also depicted in this video.

I am Latin Rite Catholic familiar with the Eastern Churches in communion with Rome.

What is the location place of apparition of Our Lady called Hrshiv? I have read of Josef Terelya's experiences. God Bless Ukraine and all her holy martyrs.
