1707. Russian Orthodox The tower with two octagonal circles, the extended lower four-cornered circle and a square circle above it seem to run one into another if looked at from the inside of the Church. The Church is 26 m in height. The upper part is cross-shaped. The 18th-century sculpture decorations inside the Church, supporting the dome, mainly in the forechurch and choir lofts are very sumptuous. An altar plafond is encircled with fruit and flower swags with four angels standing in the dome corners.
