Travel Guide Skyiatinovo ())

In front of Debolovskoïé, on a hill, you can see the white church of the village of Skniatinovo. This village was celebrated in the th century because it was placed under the authority of the son of Alexander Nevski, and then belonged to the princes of Rostov.The architecture of the church Notre-Dame de Kazan (1693) is very representative of the late th century. Its perforated pediments and octagonal windows belong to the Moscow style, or even to Baroque style, while the lower windows of the church, with their asymmetrical layout on the southern façade, are closer to the Russian religious architectural style of the mid th century. Column belts to the perforated borders surrounding drums supporting domes and their metal scales, recall the major monuments of the Rostov Kremlin. Additions to the north façade and the classical bell tower are more recent, but do not deteriorate. The iconostasis is in good condition, every detail has its importance, from the elegant columns of the portico to the aerial garlands falling on the Sculpted Holy Doors.
