Andomsky Pogost

Andomsky Pogost stands on the left bank of the Andoma, a river flowing west into Lake Onega. It was the centre of an old parish district on the southeastern approaches to the lake. A survey of 1563 records the Nikolsky Andomsky pogost among the districts of the Onega country. The churchyard was a gathering place for villages scattered along the river; the stone Trinity Church was built here in 1811 by Kozma Galashevsky, a native of the parish.
