Asset Overview

Modeled after the Chapel of the Archangel Michael in Kizhi Island of Karelia (Russia), with a few elements from the Chapel of the Holy Face. The Chapel of the Archangel Michael was moved to Kizhi in 1961 from the Lelikozero village. It measures 12.0×3.0×11.0 metres and has a rectangular frame elongated from east to west and a two-slope roof. Above the entrance hall there is a belfry capped with a pyramid roof. The iconostasis of the chapel has two tiers and contains icons of 17th–18th centuries ![](https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/b/bf/Kischi_Kapelle.jpg/697px-Kischi_Kapelle.jpg)
