Фото 1
The church in honor of the Holy Trinity was built in 1831 with funds from Princess Ekaterina Alexeyevna Saltykova-Golovkina. The main building of the church is a massive square structure topped with a small octagonal drum. On the northern and southern sides, there are risalits highlighted by semicircular archivolts with round windows for additional light. On the eastern side, a rectangular apse adjoins the square structure, and on the western side, there is a small refectory connected to a three-tiered bell tower. On either side of the bell tower, there are small annexes, also adorned with archivolts, similar to the entrance. The corners of the building and the interior space of the church are accentuated by wide pilasters. The decor is executed in an eclectic style: the walls are decorated with horizontal rustication, and the framed window casings have a wedge-shaped finish at the top.
