Description
The Church Of Mary Magdalene in Mariupol is striking in its size. It is located in the heart of the city, next to the Theater Square. It stands on one of the highest points in Mariupol, and therefore its outline is visible from almost all areas of the city. The construction of the church lasted from 2007 to 2017. In the beginning, the place was consecrated and then the first stone was laid in its foundation. The site was prepared since the year 2008, with architects planning the simultaneous construction of two of the levels of the temple a the same time: the lower and upper. The height of the church (including the cross) was 84.3 meters. At the time of its construction, it became the highest in the Donetsk region and the second in Ukraine. During times of conflict, the church became a shelter for many local residents. It was partially affected.
