Yaroslavl, Pochtovaya str., 3 (Kotoroslnaya)
(Shooting date: July 24, 2008)
The Church of the Transfiguration of the Saviour in the City was built in 1672. The name of the Church of the Transfiguration of the Saviour in the City is explained by the fact that in the XVII - XVIII centuries. the main shopping area of Yaroslavl was located here. On the site of the existing church in the XIII century . there were wooden churches that had been burned down and rebuilt many times. The temple was built at the expense of the posadsky people.
During the Civil War, the temple was severely damaged by shells, and in 1919-1920 it was restored. Later, in 1929, the church was closed and transferred to a warehouse. Since July 2003, it has been returned to the faithful, and services are being held there. |
