Archbishop of Kholmogory and Vazhsky Athanasius became the first head of the Pomor episcopacy, the center of which Kolmogory became in 1682 . At his initiative in Kolmogorov two-storey Bishops' Chambers (1688-1689) and a huge Spaso-Preobrazhensky Cathedral (1683-1691) were erected with five chapters and a tent bell tower . These buildings, which have survived to our days, are the main attraction of the village . The cathedral is considered the oldest of all surviving stone s structures in the lower reaches of the Northern Dvina . The churches of the Twelve Apostles and the Descent of the Spirit have recently been restored, but the Cathedral is in a deplorable state, it is not recommended even to approach it closely, as there is a high probability of collapse .
