description About

More than 300 years ago, a church reform was carried out in Russia, and those who resisted it have been persecuted for centuries. People who call themselves Old Believers saved themselves from destruction and violence by fleeing to the outskirts of the country. Some of them ended up on the west bank of Peipus. Next to the Estonians, they have endured everything that has happened to our country, all while still preserving their faith, unique culture and way of life. For three centuries they have been ready for the coming end of the world. Each day has been lived as if the next one might not arrive.
