To speak about your native place or hometown is the same as to tell somebody the story of your soul and heart.   

            From the history of this village.

    7 kilometers from Zbarazh to Volynsko – Galitsis abroad   is situated a small village Kapustyntsy. Before the II World War there were 68 houses (270 inhabitants).

There was settlement-Kapustyntsy Lis and there were 28 houses in it. Near-by the east of the village there was the railway, which connected Ternopil, Zbarazh, Lanivtsy and Shepetivka. The railway was built by the Russian Army, which occupied Galychyna in 1914 – 1917. Kapustyntsy was founded in the XIX century. There were five streets: Krakivska, Serednia, Lysa Gora, Slipa and Dovha. In July – September 1920 the Power Rada was placed there. A central house of collective farm named Kalinin had been built. It was formed in 1941 and restored in 1949. There were 1, 3 thousand hectares of collective area and 1, 2 thousand hectares of arable area.   After the World Wars there 10 public and production buildings, 50 individual living houses were built. There was a kindergarten, a tailor’s workshop there too. For today there is 9 year school, a club, a library, a medical station, a shop.

  As for the name of this village, it was noticed that there lived a rich man named Kapustyaniy. He had a big estate and the village was named in honour of this landowner.

   Kapustyntsy is situated in Zbarazh district in the north of Ternopil region. This village borders on Krasnosiltsy, Musorivtsy, Zarydechko and Roznoshyntsy. It is approximately 7 km from Zbarazh. The population of Kapustyntsy is about 150 inhabitants. The railway and highway connect Kapustyntsy with Zbarazh. The territory of the village is in the western wood and steppe zone. The farmers grow wheat, sugar beets, potatoes, cabbages, carrots, and other vegetables. The climate is mild and favourable for growing agricultural plants. This village is rich in many mineral resources. It has building materials as sand, clay, stone, etc. There are many small artificial lakes. Kapustyntsy is a small and beautiful village. There is an ostrich-farm and a pig-farm. There are horses in it too. In the center of the village you can see a club.Behind of Kapustyntsy is a school. In front of the village there is a beautiful church and a shop. Opposite the church there is a

    Sanctuary of Kapustyntsy the Church of St. Michael.

  The inhabitants of Kapustyntsy and Kapustyntsy Lis decided to restore this building, which was an old Roman Catholic Church and rebuilt into a small Greek Catholic Church in 1996. All people in this village began to repair it in 2003. They brought many icons, embroideries and others things that this Church was adorned. Thanks to all of them this building was sanctified by a big priest Michael Sabryga and was there were many Christians from neighbouring villages, such as Synagivka ,Zarudechko, Musorivtsy, Krasnosiltsy, Roznoshyntsy, Glybochok.

        My dear friend, look around

Can you see this beautiful ground.

You are right, it’s your land

A little piece of our Motherland. 

There are lots of wonders in this land

Many interesting things happened

If you want to know the land better,

Try to do! What’s the matter?

The school of the village.  It was opened in 1969.

The nature is fantastic beauty. One who has set his or her foot upon this village, one who has experienced fairy – tale charms of its nature in calmness and in riot cannot but retain those genuinely Divine impressions of sheer miracle for life. Each paradise corner with its primordial creation showers your soul with its beauty.

The mighty forests give you health and strength. You

have the sensation as if flying or floating in a boundless ocean of fantastic beauty. All drudgery of routine is behind and beyond! When you are in this forest, all you touch, hear or see charge you with salve balm of kindness and goodness. Even the most gifted artists, poets and writers fail to render this bounteous beauty of this village.

               Wind tenderly rocks the wood,

               Singing wondrous songs.

               No mortal can ever render that,             

                      No dream could be dreamt about that.

 I know some English proverbs and here is one of them – “There is no place like home”. Really, the best place is our own town or village. We never forget it when we leave it. There are many beautiful places where people live. People who live there are proud of them and like them very much, because they live and work there. The beauty of nature is a very good thing. As for me, I am proud of the history of the village, where I work and its historical traditions. As an English proverb goes“Every bird likes its own nest”. Let’s hope that we will like our own “nest” and will do everything to make it the most beautiful place on earth.   

                   English proverbs say:

              - There is no place like home.

                - What is good for me is my motherland.

                - Every bird likes its own nest.

                - East of West, home is best.
