Church of the Nativity of the Blessed Virgin Mary (Konygin)

The Church of the Nativity of the Blessed Virgin Mary (Russian: Церковь Рождества Пресвятой Богородицы) is a Russian Orthodox church in Konygin khutor, Ust-Donetsky District, Rostov Oblast, Russia.

It is also the oldest church in Ust-Donetsky District, which has been preserved to the present day.

[2] Konygin khutor was founded in 1788 and for a long time the settlement hadn't had its own church, so its inhabitants had to go for six kilometers to Razdorskaya village ― to the Church of Our Lady of the Don.

When the Cossacks returned home the following year, a stone church was laid in honor of the Nativity of the Blessed Virgin.

[2] October Revolution brought harsh times to the khutor anc church.
