History of the Church of Our Lady of the Holy Rosary (Kosiv)
The first Roman Catholic parish in Kosiv was founded in the early 18th century. At first, the Roman Catholics of Kosiv built a small wooden church of St Nicholas for their religious needs. The land plot and funds for the construction of the church were provided by Yurii and Marianna Didushytski. In 1777, a new wooden church of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary was built at the expense of Tadej Didushytskyi to replace the old abandoned church. It stood in Kosiv for a little over a century until a fire destroyed it on 20 July 1881.
In 1890-1892, Roman Catholics built a new brick church of Our Lady of the Holy Rosary in Kosiv in the Neo-Gothic style. During the Second World War, this church was burned down. In Soviet times, the church was used for some time as a fertiliser warehouse and later dismantled. In the 1970s, the building of the Kosiv Institute of Applied and Decorative Arts was erected in its place.
