History
The red-brick building stands on the shores of Lake Sosnowski in the center of the village.
The first wooden building was laid in 1861. The one-throne church was built until 1864, in which the church was consecrated in the Nativity of Christ. The building was completely destroyed by the fire of 1866. The capital stone temple was erected in 1915-1916. In 1937, the priest of the church, Panov Mikhail Stepanovich, was shot. In 1939 the church was closed [3] .
Restoration work and services began in 2004 [3] .
Architecture
The building is an original and rare monument of church architecture of the late stage of the “Byzantine style” for the Ural region [4] .
The voluminous composition of the building is made up of an octagonal temple part with a five-sided apse adjoining to it, a narthex and a developed covered porch crowned with a bell tower [4] .
The system of facade divisions reflects the planning structure of the building and follows the rules of order tectonics. Columns of a full order assembled in bundles (with pedestals) fix the corners of the temple octagon and the porch, visually support the archivolt and entablature, covering the building along the perimeter [4] .
The dome, "Byzantine" in design, is crowned with the head of the "Russian" style. The composition of the bell tower was built on a contrasting change in diameter and height from the lower tier to the upper tier of the ringing, topped with a hill of kokoshniks and a two-tier onion bulb [4] .
Light and heavy, almost devoid of decor, the volume of the temple is convincingly compared with the freedom of interpretation of prototypes inherent in the late stage of the “Byzantine style”. The inner space of the octagonal in terms of the temple is dynamic, while not devoid of harmony and unity. The leading theme in the design of the interior selected arch. Large and small arched niches, alternating among themselves, form a circular arcade closed in a circle, supporting a dome with a light lamp [4] .
