Description:

The Church of St. George the Victorious was built in 1410 by Archimandrite Varlaam and is a square structure with an altar semicircle. Three centuries later, the church underwent a thorough reconstruction, but the foundation of the temple remained the same.

The church has been restored today. Inside the temple there is a five-tiered iconostasis with icons of Greek writing. The Church of St. George the Victorious is one of the main attractions of Old Russa.
