Chapel of the Protection of the Holy Virgin in Dmitrievo

Фото 1
A small chapel with a cubic shape is adorned with high-quality brickwork and white stone inserts in the form of crosses. The original wrought iron grilles on the windows and the iron entrance door have survived to this day. The ruined concrete vault, as well as the use of cement, sand, and broken brick, indicate that the chapel was built in the late 19th century using advanced construction technologies of that time. Its strength and aesthetic appearance are emphasized by the white stone bases. The tented roof has not survived. Despite the pressures of the Soviet era, the chapel avoided demolition by bulldozer. However, there is no parish in the village, and it currently remains an abandoned and deteriorating structure without a roof.
