Chernivtsi National University named after Yuriy Fedkovych. Chernivtsi National University named after Yuriy Fedkovich: address, faculties, specialties. Faculty of Physical Culture and Human Health

“Being in Chernivtsi and not seeing the university is the same as being in Rome and not seeing the Pope,” everyone who was lucky enough to admire this architectural masterpiece will agree with this statement.

The uniqueness of the building is emphasized by its location on Dominique Hill, once the highest point in the city, surrounded by a park with a magnificent panorama of the suburbs. Thanks to this, the former Residence of the Metropolitans of Bukovyna and Dalmatia (currently the main buildings of the Chernivtsi National University named after Y. Fedkovich (Chernivtsi National University named after Yuriy Fedkovich)) has become the highlight of the city, which diversified its architectural palette and gave a special, unparalleled , individual look.

But first things first. The author of the project is Josef Hlávka, born in 1831 in the city of Přeštice in the Czech Republic. After graduating from the lyceum, he continued his studies at the Prague Polytechnic, where he studied construction and engineering, then studied architecture at the Vienna Academy of Fine Arts. Having received a good education, he soon gained a reputation as a talented architect. He developed projects for more than 150 buildings in Prague and Vienna. In addition, J. Hlávka proved himself as a bridge builder - the Prague Hlávkov Bridge was built according to his project.

However, the Residence of the Bukovinian Metropolitans in Chernivtsi (1864-1882) was recognized as his best creation. At the world exhibition in Paris (1867), this project was awarded the DeuxiemePrix - the Second Grand Prix and, thus, brought Chernivtsi to the world cultural level. The ensemble has become a symbol of the city, the culminating point of its architectural evolution.

J. Hlávka was able to show in practice that ordinary building material, such as brick, in the hands of a master can become a facade decoration. It is difficult to imagine his creations plastered. This applies not only to the Residence, but also to the Armenian Church, which J. Hlavka also built in Chernivtsi.

He was 29 years old when he won the competition to build the Residence. Construction work began four years later. Before undertaking the construction of the complex, the architect carefully studied the cultural traditions of this region. Personifying, first of all, the Orthodox Church, the Residence at the same time became a symbol of a tolerant attitude towards the cultures and religions of the peoples living in Bukovina.

Let's start with the patterns on the roofs. It is noteworthy that they are different on all buildings, but at the same time, you can see the specifics of artistic and decorative painting, which is typical for local Ukrainians. Glazed tiles on the roofs of the buildings are decorated with multi-colored geometric ornaments, reminiscent of traditional “lizhnyk” covers for this region.

Quite unexpected is the architectural design of the entrance gates – the “Eastern” theme is clearly present in their image. Even more strange are the stars of David at the base of the dome crowning the clock tower on the right side. It would seem that the author combined the incompatible: an Orthodox cross rises above the Jewish symbols. It is generally accepted that in this way J. Hlávka thanked the Jewish community for significant donations for the construction.

During the preparatory work, two brick factories and one factory for the production of colored tiles were built. Preliminarily organized search expeditions for building stone. Delivery of it from abroad would lead to a significant increase in the cost of the project, since each batch of carts with bricks would be delivered 3-4 weeks. Large quarries were explored in eight Bukovinian villages. The influence of J. Hlávka on the development of the region was also reflected in the fact that he became the discoverer of valuable deposits of alabaster, marble, coral stone, which were used in construction. From local alabaster in 1878. made a decorative vase valued at an international exhibition in Paris at 700 guilders. Thus, demonstrating an example of the natural wealth of Bukovina. Thanks to Hlavka, Bukovinians learned how to work with stone. They were taught the intricacies of the profession by 30 stonemasons, specially seconded from Vienna. The solemn consecration and laying of the first stone took place in April 1864. To ensure the appropriate technical and artistic level, a construction executive committee was created, consisting of Bishop Eugene Hakman, architect Josef Hlavka and Baron Otto Petrino. In addition, there was also an honorary supervisory board, which included respected people of the region. This proves the great importance attached to the construction of the metropolis in Chernivtsi. Its construction was delayed for 18 years, as the work was carried out only in dry weather. The norm for masons was low - 100 bricks a day. However, they approached the quality very demandingly - they measured the linear dimensions of each brick, then it was weighed and tapped to identify internal defects - cracks or voids. The rejected brick was not thrown away. From it, in the park, located behind the central building, drains for water were laid out along the edge of the alleys. There, this “marriage” is still successfully coping with the function assigned to it.

Finishing work in the Residence was carried out by: Czech master of historical painting Karel Svoboda, Viennese artists Karl Jobst and Johann Klein, Bukovinian artists - Epaminandos Buchevsky, Evgeny Maksimovich. Artistic stone carving and modeling was directed by J. Hlávka himself.

The Residence complex consists of three separate buildings. The central element of the architectural and spatial composition of the ensemble is the ceremonial courtyard - the court d'honneur. The building of the Metropolitan's Palace is located along the main axis. An unusual alley leads to it, instead of flowers or grass, it is covered with small pebbles, under which there is earth. Acacias are planted along the edges of the alley. This original drainage system was invented by Josef Hlávka. In wet weather, excess moisture quickly goes under the pebbles and remains there for a long time. In summer, in hot dry weather, pebbles are raked. Thus, an approximately constant level of humidity is maintained, ensuring the safety of the facing brick.

In architectural terms, the chapel of John Suchavsky looks somewhat alienated, from which the construction of the central building began. She served as a house church for the Metropolitan. Its dome is completed by an unusual cross. From which side you look at it, it always turns directly to the observer. The cross consists of three mutually perpendicular straight lines, the ends of which point to the cardinal points and end with balls. In the center, around a larger ball, there are two rings located in different planes. Visually creates the effect of volume.

The first floor of the metropolitan building was intended for the administration. On the second floor in the right wing near the chapel were his chambers. The Metropolitan was a monk, and therefore he lived alone. Nearby was a refectory (now the Shevchenko Hall) and the Synodal Library, which burned down on March 29, 1944, the day the city was liberated from the German-Romanian occupiers. Was it set on fire, a short circuit or a fire arose for some other reason - it is unlikely that it will ever be possible to find out. The most valuable copies of old books and manuscripts perished in the fire. The flames were so intense that the Synodal Hall, which was nearby, was also damaged. It was considered one of the most beautiful halls in Europe. Its second name - "Marble" is explained by the fact that the walls, floor, columns were made of white and black marble. In the tympanums of the arches along the perimeter of the walls there were frescoes with scenes from the history of the Orthodox and Bukovinian churches. Two crystal silver chandeliers for 120 candles and four chandeliers for 32 candles hung from a wooden inlaid three-tiered ceiling. Chandeliers and wall lamps were designed in Vienna. The fire damaged not only the ceiling, chandeliers and tiled roof, but also marble. From the high temperature, it crumbled and was no longer subject to restoration.

Today you can admire the newly restored Marble Hall. True, there is no marble there, however, the imitation is very successful. The hall is used as an assembly hall. In the former metropolitan library there is a conference room. Since the ceiling, walls and floor are made in white-blue-blue tones, it is called the Blue Hall.

The Blue and Marble are followed by the Red Hall (the meeting room of the Holy Synod), which, fortunately, the fire did not reach. Now it is the meeting room of the Academic Council.

In the Red Hall, attention is drawn to the authentic ceiling, which looks like a collection of Easter eggs, or rather, their halves, with chandeliers resembling church censers. This hall is decorated with two huge mirrors brought from Venice in 1878. The ideal condition of the mirrors is explained not only by the fact that they were always in proper conditions, but also by the high quality of workmanship - five layers of silver were applied to them. This is easy to verify by bringing a lit match. If you look at its reflection at a slight angle (15 - 20 degrees), you can see five reflections.

Such things cannot do without a legend. These mirrors have it too. It is believed that a woman, looking into any of them, grows younger as much as she herself wishes. A man, looking at his reflection, will receive a free indulgence.

The feeling that you are in a medieval castle intensifies when you get into these halls. Even more surprising is the fact that among such beauty the everyday life of Chernivtsi students takes place.

The Metropolitan's reception room and office followed the Red Hall. Nowadays it is the reception room and office of the rector.

In 1875, an important event took place in the life of the Orthodox of Bukovina - the Residence was consecrated, although work continued until 1882. At the same time, the university was opened and consecrated, which at that time consisted of three faculties: theological, legal and philosophical. For the last two faculties, the buildings were built separately at the beginning of the street leading to the Residence. The building intended for students of theology, future priests, is located on the territory of the ensemble. It is built in the shape of the letter "P", surrounding the seminary church on three sides.

The architect faced a rather difficult task. It was necessary, focusing on Bukovinian motifs, not to forget to note that the construction of this structure took place in the Austrian period. How to combine frankly rural Bukovinian folk traditions with artsy Austrian Art Nouveau? J. Hlávka solved this problem with his characteristic originality.

The sharp high roofs of all buildings with Bukovinian patterns attract attention from afar. Along the edge of the roofs, burgher-German "tongs" come to the fore, perfectly visible from the yard. Not forgetting that the Residence was built for the Metropolitan of Bukovina, the author nevertheless put Austria in the foreground, but so unobtrusively that it is visible only when you get to the territory of the ceremonial courtyard. It was a kind of "curtsey" towards the great empire, thanks to the policy of which the opening of the metropolis and the university became possible, which emphasized the high status of Chernivtsi.

The church gives this building a special, inherently multifunctional character, where, along with classrooms, there is an Orthodox church. The placement of the mosaic on the windows at the top above the entrance is deeply thought out: on a sunny day, you can watch how the ray of the sun moves in turn, illuminating the faces of the apostles, the Virgin, Jesus the Almighty and, finally, the Crucifixion. The church was consecrated in 1882 in honor of prominent Christian theologians and Ecumenical Saints: Basil the Great, John Chrysostom and Gregory the Theologian.

In Soviet times, the Residence conquered even the communists with their "cold heads and warm hearts" with its beauty. How else can one explain that Chernivtsi State University, awarded an honorary award - the Order of the Red Banner of Labor, was the only university in the Soviet Union with crosses on the roofs? Marxist-Leninist philosophy, scientific communism, scientific atheism, etc. they taught in the classrooms of the buildings, over which, instead of red flags, Orthodox crosses and Jewish stars towered. This is in a state where the church was outlawed!

In the post-war period, the majority of the teaching staff was formed from people born in different parts of the USSR, where Soviet power was established back in 1917. They were brought up on the communist ideology, were members of the CPSU, went through the fronts of the Great Patriotic War and ended up in Chernivtsi in the direction of the party. These people firmly believed that if not themselves, then their Komsomol students would be lucky to live under communism. Some people still came up with the idea to raise the issue of crosses over the university buildings, but, given that the Residence was a historical and architectural monument of republican significance, it remained “under the cloth”.

Moreover, by unspoken order of the rector (Prof. K. M. Leutsky), when in the 70s. of the last century, the former seminary church housed a computer room (electronic computers), an iconostasis of the 19th century. covered with rags and hidden behind cars. For the normal functioning of the computer, a constant temperature was maintained in the room. This saved the murals of the temple, and also preserved the iconostasis.

In 1992, the Faculty of Philosophy and Theology was opened. This is the only faculty in Ukraine whose graduates in the specialty "Theology" receive diplomas of the Kyiv Theological Academy, and in parallel, higher secular education. Currently, not only boys, but also girls study at this faculty.

A presbytery was built to the right of the main entrance. This corps was assigned a more modest role than the rest. It housed a deacon's school, a museum, guest rooms, a printing press, and a small candle factory. Behind the presbytery was the carriage house. Now there is a university garage and utility yard.

The central case is through; behind it is an arboretum with an area of ​​5 hectares, which is surrounded by a three-meter-high stone wall. At the entrance - in front of the metropolitan well - a bust of J. Hlavka, behind him - a fir tree - the same age as the park. On both sides of the monument to the architect are pools with fountains. This part of the park is, in a way, his calling card.

Further, having climbed several steps, we get to the next level - directly into the park itself. There is a bigger pool. Under the Metropolitan, goldfish swam in it. Peacocks, roe deer and other game calmly walked throughout the territory.

A stone grotto has been preserved, the purpose of which is still disputed. Most likely - it did not carry any functional load, but was laid out for beauty. There is an assumption that an underground passage began under it, leading to the railway station. In a straight line - this is no more than 800 m. It could well be, since during the construction of palaces, evacuation routes were usually provided. Most of the park is landscaped. Here, next to exotic magnolias, catalpas, tulip and cork trees, beeches, maples, hornbeams, lindens, oaks grow. One of the oaks was twice struck by lightning. And he, having lost a large branch, which broke off after the first lightning strike, and after 25-30 years, burned down after the second hit, is still alive. That's why he's an oak!

Here in the park you can see a geodesic sign installed in the 19th century. on the highest point of the city, which was at one time Mount Dominic, on which the Residence was built.

Trees create a continuous protective strip around the perimeter of the park. It provides complete isolation of the arboretum, a feeling of absolute peace. It is here that the cleanest air in the city, as evidenced by the findings of studies conducted by the environmental inspection of the Ministry of Emergency Situations in 2011.

This architectural ensemble houses one of the oldest classical universities in Ukraine. Today, the university has 18 faculties. More than 18 thousand students study at 71 departments, specialists are trained in 67 specialties.

ChNU has 14 educational buildings, a botanical garden, zoological and geological museums, a publishing house, a library with a book fund of 2.5 million copies. The teaching staff includes more than 1000 teachers, of which more than 100 are doctors of science and more than 500 are candidates of science. The university is recognized as accredited by the status of a higher educational institution of the ІV level of accreditation. He has a military department, 8 specializations of the Academic Council for the defense of candidate and doctoral dissertations, is a member of the International Association of Universities "Phi Beta Delta" (USA).

J. Hlávka supervised the construction works for 12 years. All this time he rested no more than 4-5 hours a day. Such loads affected the health of a very young man, as he was at that time. A serious illness put him in a wheelchair. He was forced to leave Chernivtsi, never having seen his offspring in its completed form.

Among the architectural monuments of Chernivtsi, a special place is occupied by the architectural ensemble of the former Residence of the Orthodox Metropolitans of Bukovina and Dalmatia (1864-1882), included in the UNESCO World Cultural Heritage Sites (2011). Currently, Chernivtsi National University named after Yuriy Fedkovych is located in the former residence.

The initiative to build the Residence belonged to Bishop Eugene Gakman. Ruthenian by nationality, he directed a lot of efforts to support the Orthodox faith and the creation of the Bukovina Metropolis. Back in 1863, he obtained permission from the Austrian Kaiser Franz Joseph I to build a new residence worthy of the capital of Bukovina.

The main funding was provided by the Bukovina Orthodox Religious Foundation with the support of the Austrian authorities and other confessions. A kind of gratitude for the contribution of the Jewish denomination was the crown of the "Stars of David" on the tower of one of the buildings of the ensemble. The total cost of construction was about 2 million gold florins.

The project of an architectural ensemble in the spirit of eclecticism with a predominance of elements of the Byzantine and Romanesque styles was carried out by a famous Czech scientist, architect, academician Josef Hlávka. Under his leadership, exploration of local building resources began, ceramic and brick factories were launched, and local masters were trained in the craft of masons. The quality of each brick was checked by dropping it from a height of twenty meters. To strengthen the masonry, chicken eggs were added to the mortar.

Well-known Austrian, Czech and Bukovinian artists took part in the decoration of the buildings.
The project repeatedly won prizes at international competitions and was awarded the Second Prize for Architecture at the Paris World Exhibition of 1867. The composition of the ensemble consists of three monumental structures-buildings: the main, theological seminary together with the Church of the Three Hierarchs, the presbytery.

The residence of the Bukovinian Metropolitan was built in 1854 - 1862, and the main building - in 1864 - 1876.

Chernivtsi National University named after Yuriy Fedkovych It was founded in 1875 on the basis of a theological seminary consisting of three faculties: theological, legal and philosophical. During the period of entry of the territory into the Austro-Hungarian Empire until 1918, teaching was conducted in German.
The university bears the name of a Ukrainian writer, a harbinger of the Ukrainian national revival in Bukovina Osip-Yuri Fedkovich(1834, Putila -1888, Chernivtsi). He was born in Austria-Hungary in the family of a poor employee. He studied at the Chernivtsi German real school, later worked in Moldova, did military service in Transylvania, took part in a campaign in Italy with the rank of lieutenant, during which he wrote the first poem in Ukrainian (previously he wrote in German). He worked in Lvov as an editor of the Prosveshchenie publishing house and the Russkaya Conversation theater. He spent his last years in Chernivtsi, where in 1885-1888 he was the editor of the Bukovyna newspaper. For merits in the literary field, he was elected an honorary member of the Scientific Society. Taras Shevchenko.

After the transfer of Bukovina to Romania in 1918, Chernivtsi University in 1920 was transformed into the Romanian University named after Carol I. In 1940, after the accession of Northern Bukovina to the Ukrainian SSR, Chernivtsi University became a state university (with 7 faculties), teaching in Ukrainian.

The main building of the university was built under the Romanian administration (1920 - 1922). On the historical territory of the residence of the metropolitans there are three educational buildings and the current Church of the Three Hierarchs.

About 19 thousand students study at 12 institutes and faculties, including biology and chemistry, geographical, economic, physical, technical and computer sciences, foreign languages, history, political science and international relations, applied mathematics, pedagogy and psychology, philological, legal, physical, cultural and human health.

In 1892, Ivan Franko studied at the university for one semester, and he translated into Ukrainian the work of Friedrich Engels "The Development of Socialism from Utopia to Science", printed in a local printing house.

Pompous entrance gate

Cathedral of the Three Ecumenical Hierarchs (Basil the Great, Gregory the Theologian and John Chrysostom) and the former theological seminary, which houses the philosophical and theological faculty of the university.

Since 1990, the cathedral has been owned by the Ukrainian Orthodox Church (Kyiv Patriarchate). The Cathedral of the Chernivtsi-Bukovina diocese of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church (Moscow Patriarchate) is located elsewhere in the city.

The central building is the former palace of the Metropolitans, which has seen many high-ranking guests in its lifetime. The building is famous for its luxurious halls - Synodal (or Marble), Blue (the former library of the Metropolitan), Green (office of the rector of the University).

Seating (monastic) building with a graceful tower in the center, where a cross solemnly rises above the clock, as a symbol of the irreversibility of time. In the past, the presbytery housed monastic cells, a deacon school, a printing house, and a small candle factory. Today, the University's Faculty of Geography is located here.

Marble Hall (assembly hall of the university)

Corridors of the former court of the Metropolitans

In the spacious hall on the first floor of the main building there are statues, including women with magnificent breasts, but without a head. This is one of the copies of the statue, which in the past adorned the Cathedral Square of Chernivtsi and symbolized Austria (then all parts of the body were in place). The university belief says that if you hold "Austria" by the chest, you will be lucky in the exam session. I don’t know how lucky the students are, but the chest is thoroughly stained.

Simultaneously with the residence of the metropolitans, a unique landscape-style arboretum was created. The entrance to the park is a platform with pyramidal thujas, in the center of which there is a bronze bust. Josef Hlávka(1831 - 1908). His construction company completed about 140 orders in Vienna, including the construction of the Vienna Opera House. Behind the monument is a nine-meter well with mineral water, which dried up in the 1970s.

Next to exotic species of trees in the park there are maples, oaks, lindens, hornbeams; weeping willows, magnolia and catalpa also grow. They create a continuous protective strip around the perimeter of the park, providing its complete isolation and a feeling of absolute peace.

Lecture for excursionists

The memorial plaque on the facade of the Faculty of Applied Mathematics is dedicated to the memory Nikolai Nikolaevich Bogolyubov(1909, Nizhny Novgorod -1992, Moscow) - Soviet mathematician and theoretical physicist, academician of the Academy of Sciences of the Ukrainian SSR (1948) and the Academy of Sciences of the USSR (1953), founder of scientific schools in nonlinear mechanics and theoretical physics, twice Hero of Socialist Labor.

Since 1929, Bogolyubov worked at the Ukrainian Academy of Sciences and at Kiev University (1936 - 1940). After the reunification of the Northern Bokovina with the Ukrainian SSR, he was sent to Chernivtsi University to organize mathematical departments at the Faculty of Physics and Mathematics.

Since 1944 - head of the Department of Mathematical Physics of the Kyiv University. In 1950, he began working at the Steklov Mathematical Institute and the Lomonosov Moscow State University. At the same time he took part in the Atomic Project, from 1950 to 1953 he headed the mathematical department in Arzamas-16.

Since 1956 he has been director of the Laboratory of Theoretical Physics of the Joint Institute for Nuclear Research (JINR) in Dubna. In the period 1965-1973 - Director of the Institute of Theoretical Physics of the Academy of Sciences of Ukraine, then until 1988 - Director of JINR, Head of the Department of Quantum Statistics and Field Theory of the Faculty of Physics of Moscow State University until 1992.

2. In 1860, the famous Czech architect and scientist Josef Hlavka created a project for the future residence of the metropolitans, and in 1864 its construction began. Construction lasted 18 years and was completed in 1882. For this, two brick and one tile factories were specially built. And in order to build such a grand structure, famous craftsmen and builders from Prague and Vienna were allowed to lay no more than a hundred bricks a day, and each brick was measured separately.

3. Chernivtsi National University. Y. Fedkovych is a real architectural landmark - you can say the heart of Chernivtsi. By decree of Emperor Franz Joseph (Austria-Hungary) on October 4, 1875 Chernivtsi National University was founded. Then it had only three faculties: theological, philosophical and legal.

4. The history of the university is very interesting, at different times and eras it belonged to different states. For example, in 1918, when the Austro-Hungarian Empire collapsed and Northern Bukovina joined Romania, Chernivtsi University became a Romanian university. In 1940, Bukovina joined Ukraine and the university was reorganized into a Soviet state university, but with teaching in Ukrainian.

5. Unfortunately, during the Great Patriotic War, after a big fire, this religious building was heavily looted and destroyed, and a major restoration was carried out only in 1956, after which the modern Chernivtsi National University was located here.

6. In 1989 Chernivtsi National University was named after the outstanding Ukrainian writer Y. Fedkovych.

8. At one time, Josef Hlávka thought about building a residence for centuries. He built not only an amazingly beautiful structure, but also completely thought out a unique drainage system under a layer of gravel. It was he who laid the foundation for planting acacias in the project, which not only decorate the yard, but also, with the help of their roots, suck out water that comes to the foundations of the walls. And the pipes that are supposed to drain water from the roofs do not drain it to the ground like in ordinary houses, but take it away from the building through a special underground channel, thereby preventing the building from collapsing completely.

9. Majestic arches and columns in the transitions between floors.

10. The interior of the auditorium has been preserved since the times when seminarians were engaged in these halls.

11. Walking along the corridors of the university, you feel the spirit of the monastery.

12. I could not get into the garden, but I found out that outside the walls of the university there is a unique botanical garden, which was created in parallel with the main buildings of the residence back in 1864. An interesting fact is that for some rare tree species that have survived to this day, at one time Bukovina paid tribute to Turkey.

13. Inside the university residence is the Marble Hall, which is decorated with various types of red-pink and brown marbles and is considered one of the most beautiful in all of Europe.

14. The roofs of the university are covered with glazed tiles of eight colors and decorated with a peculiar ornament.

15. On the territory of the university to this day there is a functioning Christian church, as well as the theological faculty, which was the only theological faculty in the Soviet education system in Ukraine.
