Holy Trinity Church at Khokhly

Holy Trinity Church at Khokhly (April 2013)

The Holy Trinity Church at Khokhly was first mentioned in 1610 and it is known to have been replaced by a stone version in 1696. The structure incorporates the standard 'octagon-on-cube' design, and this section of the church is a lot taller than the attached bell tower. During the Soviet era the church was closed and used as accommodation. As a result its domes were removed. In 1992 the building was returned to the Orthodox Church which set about restoring it.
