Part of the parish church ensemble re-edified in 1727-1763 on the “old church site” after a fire that completely destroyed the ancient churches. The existing ensemble is an outstanding monument of Russian wooden architecture. The Trinity Church with its Assumption and Peter and Paul chapels, the main church of the parish, is unique in its architecture. It was built in three years by a gang of six Nyonoksa joiners headed by Kargopol’s church master Vassily Korsakov. The church was consecrated in 1730. Abstract by O.G. Baranova
