Temple ship
The tour of Kirul began from the site of the former city cemetery, moved from the city center (now Kirov Park) here in 1783. Mikhail Rogachev spoke about the history of the Holy Ascension Church - the only pre-revolutionary temple standing in this place in Syktyvkar.
— Construction began in 1801. It lasted a long time and ended in 1812. The temple was finally completed by 1822, when it was consecrated. This is the most outskirts church of the city. The temple is an example of early Russian classicism. You can call it a church-ship, because in the form in which it has been preserved, it looks like a caravel. Two churches: winter (small, but heated) and summer (large front and unheated) are located in one building.
Mikhail Rogachev
This pre-revolutionary temple is the only one preserved in Syktyvkar. This happened thanks to the “economics” of the NKVD: they set up workshops and a garage here. The bell tower was demolished and was not completely restored after the revolution - it interfered with the landing of planes. But the temple was raised in rank. Before the revolution, it was without a parish, it did not have its own clergy, it was assigned to the city Trinity Cathedral, and the liturgy was served only a few times a year. The temple served mainly for funeral services for Ust-Sysolsk residents who were setting off from here on their last journey. The cemetery was not preserved and was partially moved to the place where the old city cemetery is now located.

House with storage shed
The next object of the excursion was house No. 45 on Zavodskaya Street - a two-story building where shopping arcades used to be located. Its peculiarity, according to Sazhin, is the attached storehouse, thanks to which merchant carts could unload goods directly into the house.
— Kirul is located at the bend of the Sysola River. A lot of houses that were in old Ust-Sysolsk on the shore simultaneously served as trading houses, that is, goods were stored in them. Storage sheds [utility premises, food warehouse] were built right next to the house. In photographs of old Ust-Sysolsk you can see huge storage sheds just standing on the shore, but here the storage shed is attached to the house. There is no other house in the city where the storage shed is preserved as an extension to the house. What's so good about this attached storage shed? This ledge is very good for unloading and loading in order to go down to Sysol and unload onto ships. The most important connection of Ust-Sysolsk with the rest of the world is only one thing - the river. Goods arriving here are unloaded, stored and sent to stores,” Sazhin explained.
House on Beregovaya, 73
The house where the history of Vyacheslav Slyusarev’s family began in Ust-Sysolsk. More details in the video:
The project “Walking around Ust-Sysolsk” began in March 2021. Historians, journalists, and researchers tell Syktyvkar residents about the history of the city, each time choosing one topic. The last excursion from the series “Wooden Syktyvkar, which we will soon lose” was dedicated to typical urban development of the 19th century. In total, more than 30 excursions took place. They take place once or twice a month.

Deacon's House
Igor Sazhin began his part of the tour from the deacon’s house on Zavodskaya Street. The architectural feature of the house is that its log masonry goes right under the roof:
“Unfortunately, this is already a dying, crumbling monument. What's great about this house? It shows the peculiarity of Kirul's architecture. In Syktyvkar you will find, perhaps, another such house. There are several of them in Kirula, about six or seven. What's unusual about them? Its peculiarity is in the log masonry. She goes right to the roof. There is practically no attic there [in the house]. This is a very unusual construction system, a local Kirula tradition brought from some village. The roof lies on logs. The most interesting thing is the northern structure, thanks to it the house has not yet collapsed,” said Igor Sazhin.
