USAПерривилл1912Public buildings

A wooden church built soon after the village was founded in 1912 by people from Katmai who left their former home after the volcanic eruption. The exact construction date has not been documented; the Orthodox Church in America directory gives 1924 as the year the parish was founded. The building, about 57.5 feet long, consists of a vestibule, nave and altar, with an octagonal cupola and cross above the roof. It was listed on the US National Register of Historic Places in 1980.

Деревянная церковь построена вскоре после основания селения в 1912 году: Перривилл создали жители Катмая, покинувшие прежнее место после извержения вулкана. Точная дата постройки не установлена; в справочнике Православной церкви в Америке годом основания прихода назван 1924-й. Здание длиной около 17,5 метра состоит из притвора, нефа и алтаря, над кровлей поставлена восьмигранная главка с крестом. В 1980 году церковь внесена в Национальный реестр исторических мест США.
