Saints Peter and Paul Church, Orthodox church in Polevskoy, Russia

Saints Peter and Paul Church is a stone Orthodox church in the southern part of Polevskoy, built from 1786 and consecrated in 1793. Its masonry walls replaced an earlier wooden church on the same site; the building later housed factory workshops and a bus station before being returned to the parish in 1992.

Craftsmen of the Polevskoy plant petitioned for a church from 1728; on 29 June 1730 Igumen Philip laid the wooden church of the apostles Peter and Paul, consecrated in 1731. Masons from Ustyug and Solikamsk began a stone church in 1772, but the unfinished building was dismantled; a new one was laid on 6 July 1786 and consecrated on 11–13 September 1793 by Igumen Gedeon of the Trinity Rafailov Monastery. The wooden church was dismantled and burned in the new brick kiln only in 1800.

The patronal feast falls on 29 June, the day of the apostles Peter and Paul, when Igumen Philip laid the first church in 1730. In 1941 the parish was closed and its icons, books and vestments were burned on the bank of the Polevskoy pond. The building was returned to believers on 15 February 1992, and the first service in the half-ruined church followed on 28 February.

The church stands in the southern part of Polevskoy and is an active parish of the Ekaterinburg diocese. The patronal feast of Saints Peter and Paul falls on 29 June (12 July in the Julian calendar), the day the wooden church was founded in 1730. Visitors should dress modestly and avoid photographing during services.

In 1941 the parish was closed and its icons, books and vestments were burned on the bank of the Polevskoy pond; the prayer hall then housed workshops of the "Krasny Metallist" factory, and from 1965 the old church building was converted into a bus station. The building was handed back to the parish on 15 February 1992, and the first service in the half-ruined church followed on 28 February.
