Церква Покрови Пресвятої Богородиці

The Pokrov Church stands with its silver domes and crosses on the second floor of a substantial building in central Meshkovskaya.

The original church was constructed in 1917 near the Ostrovsky baths, but authorities converted it into a cinema before demolishing it in 1936.

The church maintains an icon painting school and wood carving workshop, preserving traditional Russian Orthodox artistic techniques and methods.

Religious services occur every Sunday, with additional celebrations during major Orthodox festivals, welcoming both local residents and visitors.

The church houses an 18th-century icon of the Protection of the Mother of God and contains relics of Saint Theodosius of the Caucasus.
