Summary/Abstract: The article’s primary purpose is to present the fate of the Greek Catholic clergyman Hryhoriy Khomyshyn (1867–1945) during the two most important military conflicts of the twentieth century. At the outbreak of World War I, he had already been bishop of Stanyslaviv for a decade, trying to introduce changes in the functioning of the Greek Catholic Church and advocating its Latinization. During World War II, he was arrested several times by the Russian and German occupiers. He died in December 1945 due to brutal interrogations in Lukyanivska Prison.
