The Church of George on the Trade was built in 1356. Residents of Lubyanytsia - a street that passed directly through the auction (city market) - put a stone structure on the site of a wooden church. When the wooden building was built is unknown.

The church is a quadrangular base on which the octagonal “drum” rises. The church is crowned by a small dome.

Today in the temple is the Museum-exhibition of city photography.
