TheNativity of Our Lord Chapel (Russian:Церковь Рождества Христова) is a historicRussian Orthodox church located in Church Street,Ouzinkie, Alaska. It is now under theDiocese of Alaska of theOrthodox Church in America.[2]
The current building was built in 1906 as a replacement to an older, adjacent building from 1849 or 1855 that was left to deteriorate. Its design was based on that of the 1888Russian Orthodox church at Karluk, which itself was based upon thechurch at Belkofski. This church has a relatively larger onion dome, though the onion dome is still small.[3]
