About the exhibition

This virtual exhibition lets you walk through a museum-style room and see icons, crosses, liturgical vessels, vestments and other sacred objects recreated as detailed 3D models. You can walk right up to any piece, look at it from any angle, and read more about its history and origin.

The exhibition was created within the project “Sloboda Ukraine Code. Church Antiquities”. A separate VR app is available for Meta Quest 3 / 3S headsets.

System requirements

Desktop or laptop
Minimum: a computer from the last 7–8 years with an up-to-date browser (Chrome, Firefox, Edge or Safari); built-in graphics are enough. Recommended: a computer from the last 4–5 years, or one with a dedicated graphics card.
Smartphone or tablet
Minimum: a device from the last 4 years running a recent Safari (iPhone/iPad) or Chrome (Android). Recommended: a mid-range or newer device on Wi-Fi.
