Успенская церковь, Orthodox church in Shimorskoye, Russia

The stone Dormition Church features three altars, with the main one dedicated to the Dormition of the Mother of God, located near the Oka River.

Built in 1778 and reconstructed in 1809, the church underwent significant changes when its wooden structure was relocated and replaced with a stone building.

The church serves as a regional cultural heritage site, maintaining Orthodox traditions through regular services and religious education in its Sunday school.

Visitors can attend services at the church, which features a bell tower equipped with seven bells weighing 700 kilograms and a clock that chimes every quarter hour.

The church bells, reinstalled in 2007, mark each quarter hour with distinct chimes, creating a temporal reference point for the entire Shimorskoye community.
