The Romanov-Borisoglebsky District once had one of the largest populations of Old-Believers in Russia and St Tikhon of Amathus' Old-Believers Church was built by the city's Old-Believer community in 1913.  The small red-brick church had one dome and a bell tower over its porch.  In 1937 the church was closed and then used as the city archive.  The archive has since been moved but the church has never been reopened.
