The estate is Christmas. Christmas church

The village of Christmas was first mentioned in a written document under 1433 as a royal patrimony. In 1643 it was granted to Prince Alexei Mikhailovich Lvov, who owned the estate until 1678. As for the Nativity Church, it was first mentioned in 1628, and two centuries later it was rebuilt with two chapels in honor of the Nativity of St. John the Forerunner and the Holy Apostles Peter and Paul. The church was made in the style of late classicism.

Today, the Christmas Church is the only surviving manor building. It is a small one-story building with a low deaf drum topped with a dome. In comparison with the slender bell tower, it looks quite squat. A distinctive feature of this temple is that it does not have an altar ledge. Decorative decoration is made up of columns under triangular pediments, arched openings on the facades, flat niches and rust. The temple was recently restored and returned to the faithful in 1997.

The main manor house, which experts consider a vivid example of wooden classicism, with galleries and outbuildings, unfortunately, has not survived. In the middle of the twentieth century, for unknown reasons, it was destroyed. Near the church there is a monument reminiscent of the heavy battles of the Great Patriotic War, when the village was occupied, and the temple was turned into a firing point.
