Church of st. Ignacy Loyola and Stanisław Kostka, currently the Church of the Transfiguration of the Lord - a former Roman Catholic church located in Krzemieniec in the Tarnopol region in Ukraine, originally belonging to the Jesuit Order.

In 1728, Prince Michał Serwacy Wiśniowiecki undertook to build a new church for the existing Jesuit residence in Krzemieniec. The monastery complex was built in the years 1731–1745 according to the design of Father Paweł Giżycki (possibly with the influence of Paweł Fontana) from the foundation of Prince Michał Serwacy Wiśniowiecki. It is the most perfect work of Paweł Giżycki, the genesis of which should be sought in the Roman classicizing baroque of the beginning of the 18th century. The construction of schools, started simultaneously from the south, was completed in 1753. The construction of the second northern wing of the monastery continued in the 1770s and was not completed, because in 1773 the Jesuit Order was abolished. After this fact, the monastic church became a parish church, and after the November Uprising, in 1832, it was taken over by the Orthodox Church. During the Second Polish Republic, it functioned again as a Catholic church, but after the annexation of Volhynia by the USSR and its inclusion into the Ukrainian SSR, a sports hall was arranged there. After the collapse of the USSR, it was handed over to the Ukrainian Orthodox Church and adapted for the Transfiguration Cathedral (until 2018 of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church of the Kiev Patriarchate, then the Ukrainian Orthodox Church).
