Kasata klasztoru bazyliańskiego w Lublinie w latach 1864–1866
Dissolution of the Basilian monastery in Lublin in the years 1864-1866

Summary/Abstract: In the mid-19th century, the Basilian monastery in Lublin was one of the five monasteries of this type in the Kingdom of Poland. Its dissolution was ordered by the governor Teodor Berg on 10 December, 1864, and carried out on 30 January, 1865. The monastic property was repossessed and taken over by the Treasury of the Kingdom of Poland. The Church of the Transfiguration of the Lord thus became a parish church, and the former monastery superior became its temporary administrator on the post of a vicar. The monastery buildings were to be used as the rector’s apartment and a Uniate elementary school. Fol­lowing the liquidation of the Uniate Church in the Kingdom of Poland in 1875, the parish was joined to the Orthodox Church.
