Holy Trinity Church at Khokhly
The Holy Trinity Church at Khokhly was first mentioned in 1610 and it is known to have been replaced by a stone version in 1696.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.
