In 1678, at the site of the present Transfiguration Cathedral, a Jesuit collegium and a church were erected. When the Jesuit order was closed in 1773, the church became the Uniate Order of the Basilian monks, in 1831 - became an Orthodox city council, and in 1937 was destroyed. After the establishment of the Ovruch Eparchy of the UOC (1993), in 1990-2001, on the old foundations erected a new cathedral, which acquired the status of a cathedral. The form of the temple differs from the old one and combines motifs of different styles of old architecture: the body in the form of a basilica is crowned from the western end of a high bell tower, and in the middle - a mighty 5-chapter.
