Belozersk's only wooden church is St Elijah's Church which is said to have been built between 1690 and 1696.  The church is an example of what is known as a tier church as it consists of a cubic structure topped by a smaller square, then an even smaller octagon and finally a dome.  Along with the Dormition and Transfiguration of the Saviour Cathedrals, St Elijah's Church is protected as a site of federal significance. It is currently being "restored" which involves replacing much of the original wood.

Located a few metres from St Elijah's Church is the ruins of the Intercession Church which was once part of a church complex with St Elijah's.
