The Church "St. Paraskeva"

“St. Paraskeva” Church is an Orthodox church in the town of Ugarchin. The first building of the church was built in 1866, and the local population put in labor and money to build it. The temple is small, four steps into the ground, stone, without a dome and bell tower and covered with slabs, and bears the name of the patroness of the town, St. Petka. The church was destroyed in 1876 by Turks, Circassians and Abkhazians during the suppression of the April Uprising in Novo Selo, and the wooden parts of the church were destroyed and it became unusable. In 1935 the mayor of the town allocated a large sum of money for the construction of a new church. The church building was located on the same site and was completed in 1938, when it was also consecrated.
