Prudy

Prudy was a churchyard in the Pskov lands, near the Mnoga and its tributary the Labenka. It served as a centre for the Prudy district, one of the groups of rural churchyards through which the surrounding lands were organized. Its stone Church of Saint Nicholas dates from the fifteenth century, a modest example of the local tradition of church building. The churchyard and its parish connected the scattered villages of the district to the religious life of Pskov.
