Transfiguration of the Lord Church

Transfiguration of the Lord Church

This church is usually also referred to in Russian as the Higher Transfiguration of the Lord Church as it is located on the top of the ravine. It was built in 1700 to replace an older wooden version. It is made up of a white stone building topped with five small black domes and attached to a small bell tower. It was closed in 1938 and only reopened in 1993. Now it serves as an embassy church for the Svyato-Pafnutiev Monastery in Borovsk.
