St Nicholas' Church at Pyzhy (July 2013)

The beautiful St Nicholas' Church at Pyzhy gets its name from Bogdan Pyzhov who was a commander of a streltsy regiment which were based in this settlement. The current church dates from approximately 1672. It features five domes whose bases are decorated with kokoshniks and an decorative bell tower. In 1934 the church was closed and only returned to the Orthodox Church in 1990 and subsequently restored.
