Ruins of a church in the small village of Savrusha in the Orenburg region. From the once large temple, its parish included several neighboring villages, today only a skeleton remains.

A church with a bell tower was built in 1871, at the expense of the landowner Pyotr Fedorovich Durasov. The building occupied 286 square fathoms of land and accommodated about 400 parishioners. There was a stone fence around the temple. There were two thrones in the church: the first was consecrated in 1871 in the name of Saint Theodore Trichina; the second was consecrated in 1883 in the name of the Archangel of God Michael. The staff of the church consisted of a priest and a psalmist.
