Church of the Transfiguration in Klimatino

Фото 1
The stone church with a single dome in the village of Klimatino, dedicated to the Unmade Savior, was built in 1780 by Princess Anastasia Alexeyevna Golitsyna. The church has three altars: of the All-Merciful Savior, the Three Hierarchs, and the Great Martyr Barbara. The bell tower was constructed simultaneously with the church and is connected to it.

Previously, there stood a wooden church dedicated to Saint Leontius of Rostov, which was dismantled after the stone church was built. In the new church, the image of Saint Leontius, transferred from the old wooden church, is especially venerated.

In addition to traditional processions, a procession takes place throughout the parish on June 24 in memory of the deliverance from cholera in 1848, as well as a procession to the village of Korovaevo on April 23 during the cattle drive and on July 20 in memory of the fire that destroyed much of the village.

Among the church utensils from the wooden church, only tin crowns used in weddings have survived. Among the antiquities are burial mounds in the estate garden. The church land comprises 39 desyatinas, and the parish includes three villages: Klimatino, Korovaevo, and Zvyagino.
