Description Church of the Assumption was built in 1912. From 1937 to 1949 the church was abandoned due to the anti-Christian actions of the communist regime, then resumed worship in the temple. In 1991, the church was returned to commune of Old Believers.

Indeed they did. Β They may have been ordered by a tyrant, but the power of God and Motherland is far more powerful than the word of any worldly dictator. Β We Greeks know this well too.
