Church of the icon of Theotokos of Kazan ensemble
Church of the icon of Theotokos of Kazan ensemble, Orthodox church ensemble in Ustyuzhna, Russia
The Church of the Kazan Icon stands on an elevated bank of the Vorozha River, featuring white stone patterns around windows and tiered drums.
The church was constructed in 1694 with funds from merchant Grigory Stroganov after his recovery following prayers to the Kazan icon of the Mother of God.
The interior walls display frescoes painted between 1756 and 1757 by twelve masters from Yaroslavl, led by brothers Ivan and Afanasy Shustov.
The religious complex includes the main church building with two side chapels, a tent-shaped bell tower, and remains open for regular Orthodox services.
This religious monument represents the final church where frescoes were executed in traditional Yaroslavl school technique using water colors on wet plaster.
