In 1714 the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Lviv (in the person of Archbishop Jan Skarbek) transferred a small Roman Catholic church in Buchach to the local Basilians. This decision was made permanent by Archbishop Mikołaj Gerard Wyżycki on April 29, 1747.[1]
On September 18, 1771 with the permission of Metropolitan Leo Sheptytsky the abbot of the monastery (Father Innocent Mshanetskyi) consecrated the newly built monastery church of the Elevation of the Precious and Life-Giving Cross.
Major restoration works began in the late 1990s and, as of 2018, were still ongoing.[1]
