Church of the Nativity
Tobolsk, Tyumen region, Russia
Description:
The Church of the Nativity of Christ originally had the appearance of a wooden temple. It was built in the XVII century, when parish churches were often visited by people. Residents took care of their city and spared no money. Thanks to the parishioners managed to lay the temple of stone. Archimandrite Porphyry and church charterer Cherepanov directed the construction process.
The church was built in the style of Siberian Baroque – a rich painting of the domed roof and decorations on the dome of the church supporting crosses. Old-fashioned 17th-century decor.
Inside the aisles with altars make the refectory freer and wider.
Currently, the walls of the parish are dilapidated.
The church is located on the street. The Decembrists are 42 and can be reached by any convenient means.
