St Nicholas' Church at Tryokh Gory

St Nicholas' Church at Tryokh Gory (August 2013)

St Nicholas' Church at Tryokh Gory, which is also called St Nicholas' Church in Novoe Vagankovo, was built between 1762 and 1775 to replace an earlier wooden version which was first mentioned in 1628.  In 1860 a wide refectory and a tall bell tower were built onto the church and then more construction took place in 1900 to make the new additions more harmonious with the original church.  The church was closed during the Soviet era and used as a Pioneers House which saw its bell tower and dome demolished.  It was returned to the Orthodox Church in 1992 and subsequently restored.
