The Church of St. George the Victorius, Great Martyr (Lozhgolovo Village, the Slantsy District). The first wooden church was built about 1660 and was burnt down in 1831. The stone Classicism style church was built in the cemetery during 1832-1835 on the design of the architect A.Z. Komarov for the money of N.A. Tatarinov, the owner of the estate ""Dolgaya Melnitsa""(Long Mill). Iconostasis (it was made in the Academy of Arts in the end of the 18th century) was moved from the church at the Emperor Founding Hospital. It was rebuilt in 1879 (the architect G.A. Solovyev), from 1907 to 1908 (admittedly by the architect P.P. Sokolov) and in 1912 (the architect P.P. Trifanov). The Russian style church was crowned with the massive bulbous dome on the windowed drum and with four small piramidal domes, there was high piramidal bee tower over the narthex. The church worked during the occupation in 1942. The priest Nikolay Nedremsky, the dean of the church (from 1948 to 1961), was buried behind the altar.
