The bells in the belfry look heavy and serene. The light falls in such a way that one can see every crack on the metal, making it very quiet.

Sophia Johnson Those bells look like they've been hanging there since the 1800s. The stonework around the belfry is solid old Russian style, thick walls and simple arches.
Екатерина Соловьёва Are the bells really that healthy looking? Tell me where and when you filmed it.
Lukas Weber In my photo, the old bricks in the masonry of the belfry are especially noticeable, uneven and darkened with time.
Дмитрий Соловьёв The bells are truly impressive, especially when you see how they hang on thick beams. In our area, these were often cast in Voronezh in the middle of the 19th century, so cracks and irregularities on them are common.
Elizabeth Parker Those cracks really stand out in the light.
Elena García Yes, the masonry around the belfry looks old, with uneven seams between the bricks, as if it had not been rebuilt for a hundred years.
Людмила Бондаренко The bells really look like they haven't been touched in decades. Is the church open to visitors on weekdays? And when are the services there?
Јасмина Стојановска Jasmina Stojanovska: I would like to see it live one day. Those cracks on the metal seem to tell something of their own.
