Preĝejo de Tri Sanktuloj, Orthodox church in Tyumen, Russia.
The Church of Three Saints in Tyumen is a single-storey brick church built in the classicist style, with one altar dedicated to Saints Basil the Great, Gregory the Theologian and John Chrysostom. Its iconostasis was made by parishioner V. V. Kurgeyev in 1994–1995 and painted by local artist B. A. Kuryachy. The bell tower holds seven bells, including one cast in 1885 at the Gilov factory.
The building was constructed in 1862 in a cemetery located across the river and initially operated under another parish church. Over time it developed into an independent congregation that continues worship services today.
