Фото 1
The Church of the Intercession of the Blessed Virgin Mary with the chapel of the Meeting of the Lord was built with the funds of parishioners between 1793 and 1796. To this day, only the main square of the temple has survived. The facades are decorated with rusticated decor and pilasters in the classical style, while the side facades had porticos. In the 1930s, the church was closed and was initially used as a workshop, then as a power station. Recently, the vaults collapsed, and local residents are dismantling the building for bricks. Despite significant destruction, the interior still retains wall paintings of high quality.
