History
In 1903–1905 the church was built according to the project of Lviv architect Mykola Shashkevych and Chortkiv builder Andrii Drazhnovskyi. The bell tower was also built.

On 14 October 1905, on the feast of the Intercession of the Blessed Virgin, the church was consecrated by the Bishop of Stanyslaviv of the UGCC, Hryhoriy Khomyshyn.

In 1908, a wooden chapel of the Mother of God was built over the spring, which had previously appeared in the churchyard, and in three years a new brick chapel appeared on the site of the wooden one.

In 1996, a 40-meter-high bell tower was built next to the church.

In the summer of 2001, a new spring, called the All-Queen's Spring, was built near the chapel, and on 11 August 2002, the Archbishop's consecration of the All-Queen's Spring took place by the UAOC Primate a huge community of believers. On 24 August 2004, an image of the Mother of God covered with an omophorion appeared above the chapel. Every year on 11 August, a holiday is sent near the source of the All-Queen.
