Church of Saint John Chrysostom, Old Believer church in Tula, Russia

The Church of Saint John Chrysostom is a brick Old Believer church built in the Russian Revival style between 1903 and 1913 in Tula's Chulkovo suburb. It has a five-domed roof, though the domes were removed in the Soviet era, and lacks the planned bell tower and porch because construction was interrupted by World War I and a lack of funds. A temporary wooden bell tower stands in the churchyard.

The church was founded by a small group of co-religionists (edinovertsy) who in 1894 formed Tula's first such parish, initially using the lower tier of the Dormition Cathedral bell tower. The foundation stone was laid on 27 May 1903 by Archbishop Pitirim, but construction stalled for a decade and the church was consecrated only on 23 October 1913. Closed in 1924, it lost its five domes and served as warehouses and workshops before being returned to the Old Believer community in 2004.

The church belongs to the Moscow eparchy of the Russian Orthodox Old-Rite Church and is the only active Old Believer church in Tula Oblast. It was built as an edinoverie (same-faith) church and only passed to the Old-Rite community in 2004, when the first prayer service was held there in December. About 50 parishioners made up the community around 2011.

The church is located in central Tula and is best reached on foot while exploring the nearby streets. Visitors should be aware that access may be limited during services and modest dress is expected.

The five domes the church had at its consecration in 1913 were removed in the Soviet years, when the building served as warehouses and workshops. A temporary bell tower was once placed directly on the ground in the churchyard, because the planned stone bell tower and porch were never built after the First World War broke out.
