History

The Holy Trinity parish was established in Kamensk-Shakhtinsky in April 1997. In 1998, the parish was granted a building in which a prayer house was arranged. The church itself was opened on July 9, 1998 and has only one altar consecrated in honour of the Holy Trinity. Subsequently, a dome was also built there, and in 2003 a belfry was installed with new bells. Now there are five domes, a refectory and a low bell tower. Building's architecture resembles that of the late 19th century.
The Holy Trinity possesses a fragment of the holy relics of St. Tikhon of Zadonsk, who was a Bishop of Voronezh and a wonderworker.
In the church there are also a canteen for homeless, a Sunday school, church charity shop and a choir.
