  In the XVll century the city grew into the biggest trade centre at the Volga and became the second largest city after Moscow.

  Rich merchants gave money for the construction. The building of a church or a temple was a great advertisement for them.
  A good example of it is the church of Ilya Prophet (Ильи Пророка) which was invested by merchant brothers Skripinykh: Anikij and Nifantij.
  They were owners of the large fur trade. (пушной промысел)
