Pobojenko was among those who took apart a monument in village Janidor, marked wooden detailses of a construction, and then collected it on a coast of a gulf of the river Kama together with team of the carpenters - restorers led by V. Pusskih. 

In a 1956 the architect B. Gnedovsky has measured and investigated this monument.

The church is delivered on high "podklet" - economic floor, in which, the last century kept valuable furs. Church of Transfiguration - type of a cellular temple by "ship". All three parts it are prolated in one line (height of a temple of 2,3 meters). At centre - "chetverik". The central part of a monument is finished completely unusually: on a prolated roof - X-shaped "bochka" with cupolas is a unique example in Russian wooden architecture saved up to our time. Is an extremely complicated construction, which required of the foremans of unusually point sectoring. The altar is located from east, "trapeznaja" is attached from west.

The walls are combined from perfect wood trunks. The trunks are carefully selected to each other, therefore filler was not required. Huge, in a girth by a thickness the trunks are bound only and thinly. The builders by gradual issue of wood trunks have expanded a top of a construction. "Poval's" visually support a roof, create an impression of stability and equilibrium. The easy parts of construction - cupolas, "bochka" - are covered with wooden scales - "lemeh". Recently prepared aspen wood was for a material for "lemekh". In due course, the sun and wind dried "lemekh" and it acquired a silvery nuance.

The interior of church is very interesting: magnificent portal conducts from gallery in "trapeznaja", the ceilings are made of thick boards, bench near walls very strong, the jambs and barriers at an altar are decorated with a thread.

The church is cut down without use of nails (nails fastened only " lemekh "), all constructions is kept at the expense of grooves and insertions.
