Location
The temple and a small cemetery are located close to the highway connecting the main part of Rybinsk with its microdistrict Rebor . During the construction of the temple, it was a road connecting Rybinsk with the now flooded city of Mologa . The temple is located on a hill, on the left bank of the Fominsky stream , in the close environment of suburban villages. On the opposite bank of the stream is located Makarov, and on the same bank, just below Ilino . Fominsky creek, which is the center of the district, is named after the village of Fominskoe, which stood on the left bank at the mouth of the stream, about 2 km below the temple. Now on the site of the village - plant hydromechanization.
History and state of the art
The construction of the temple was started according to the will of Alexander Petrovich Kozhevnikov (August 10, 1845 - May 3, 1909), a native of the family of peasants, born in the village of Fominskaya, who became rich and owned a leather factory in the village of Fominskaya. He was a member of the municipal duma and the district assembly of the Zemstvo, repeatedly acting as chairman of the Rybinsk regional council . In 1907, he was elected a deputy to the III State Duma . The construction was managed by his successor N. S. Kozhevnikov, who began construction work on September 15, 1913. The church was built slowly. By 1918, the church was not yet completed, and N. S. Kozhevnikov was already hiding from the Cheka . At the end of 1918, the gathering of neighboring peasants created a community, which in 1919 completed the construction of the church, and the Soviet authorities handed over to them a part of the church utensils from house churches and a bell from the prison church confiscated in the city.
The church operated until 1930. In 1942, the church was temporarily open, but in 1943 it closed again in connection with the priest’s recruitment to the army. The church building, which was left without supervision, was significantly damaged. In 1997, the parish was restored and the church is operational.
Architecture
Small in size, but very harmonious and well fitting into the landscape, the church was built in the pseudo-Russian style with elements of classicism. The small, single-headed quadrangle of the temple is complemented by a small refectory, above which the tent bell tower is built. The large windows of the church and the refectory are completed with semicircular arches completely in the forms of Russian classical architecture. Hip bell tower and porch are made in the Russian style.
