Tserkov' Uspeniya Presvyatoy Bogoroditsy

Amazing temple. The carving that adorns the entire temple, icons and church utensils is striking. The icons were directly embraced by their energy and prayed appeal.

On the territory of the Church of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary it is light and beautiful. To the left of the church is a two-story building of the Sunday School, which celebrated its 15th anniversary in 2018. Annually the school trains 150 children of preschool and school age. On the territory there are two parking lots: on the left and on the right is a large behind the temple. There is also a museum, a library and a social department building. Opposite to the Sunday School in 2018, the parishioner of this church built an excellent large children's playground with two slides, ropes, wagons, a ship, a swing, a large sandpit and many other facilities for children. For adults, large benches. The one who wrote the review below (about a couple of swings) apparently did not see everything. The services are amazing, the choir is magnificent, which is not anywhere (I have not yet met such a performance as in this temple. Singers with an academic background are all!). Very soulful.

There is no better place than where the soul meets God. Where problems go away and dissolve in the haze before the icons. And when crossing the threshold of the temple you feel warmth and lightness with your whole body, and you can hear chants in the air. Then you realize that when you come to the temple you can become taller.

Beautiful, well-groomed place with a small church along the road, with the park zone of the estate of Schapovo next door. On the territory there is a tiny parking lot, a children's corner with a couple swings, several household buildings related to the housekeeping of the church itself. In the summer of 2018, the restoration work of the territory and the church began. Beautiful lawns, beautiful flower beds and flower arrangements .. If you look into history, the wooden church was built by boyar Morozov in 1612. Then Tsar Feodor III presented the village with the brothers of his wife Grushetsky. After 150 years after the erection of the wooden church, the descendants of the Grushetskii stone were built. In 1812, Frenchmen stomping on Moscow break camp near the village, and rip off silver salaries from ancient church books. In 1815, the village was again sold to Ivan Arseniev (his sister was the mother of Yuri Lermontov). He did not hesitate to transfer his daughter's estate as a dowry. In 1889 the estate was bought by Ilya Shchapov, the manufacturer. On the belfry, he installed a clock-clock with a fight, which he ordered from England. Well, then in 1929 came the "councils", took everything away, burned the icons, only one survived - the one that was thrown under the wheels of the tractor when it got stuck ... In the 1980s they decided to return everything to their former places and began to restore the church ..

A small, beautiful temple, built in 1779. Located in the estate Aleksandrovo-Shchapovo.
