Description

Four sky-blue onion domes framing a fifth gilded one indicate the enchanting Church of the Dormition-of-Potters, in the Naryshkin Baroque style, built in 1654 and topped by a bell tower a century later. The magnificent interior decor, whose earthenware tiles are by the Belarussian ceramicist Stepan Poloubes, boasts a finely carved gilded wooden iconostasis from the 18C (the icons are more recent). Note also the icon representing the Virgin with three hands.
