Church of the Nativity of the Blessed Virgin Mary in Savinskoye

Фото 1
In the countryside, a five-domed stone church with a bell tower was built, dedicated to the Nativity of the Blessed Virgin Mary and Saint Nicholas. This took place in 1822 thanks to the efforts of parishioners and benefactors. Before this, there were two wooden churches on this site: one in honor of Saint Nicholas, built in 1783, and another in honor of the Nativity of the Blessed Virgin Mary, the construction date of which is unknown. In 1794, both churches burned down, and a wooden church of Saint Nicholas was erected in their place, purchased along with the bell tower from the village of Titovo for 200 rubles. This church existed until the completion of the stone one.

Annual processions are held in each village of the parish. They were established in response to fires, livestock deaths, and became particularly frequent after the cholera epidemic in 1848. The church has 36 desyatins of land and serves a parish of 10 villages.
