Krokhino Church of the Nativity

This church was built on the banks of Lake Beloye, the origin of the the Sheksna River, in approximately 1790.  During the construction of the Volga-Baltic Waterway in the 1960's, a number of historic villages and churches were submerged. This is all that remains of this church and volunteers are working to try to keep it from completely disappearing.
