Trinity Church is in Troitskoye-Kuroyedovo, now part of the city of Barysh. Its construction in 1754 and dedication to the Life-Giving Trinity mark the early part of its history. The church was closed in 1935 and partly destroyed: the bell tower and domes were dismantled, and the vaults collapsed. Its recognition as a historical and cultural monument connects this architectural history with the later development of the town.

The Maryin Paper Mill complex in Barysh comprises a production building, an office building, and a residential building for factory workers, dating from the 19th and 20th centuries. A 2014 article mentions the complex’s inclusion on the list of recorded cultural heritage sites. The same report described it at the time as unused and in poor condition. This timeframe is important: the condition description refers to 2014. The church and the paper mill complex therefore represent different chapters in the town’s cultural history.

The cinema hall at Barysh’s Central Cultural Center opened in 2016. At the time of publication, a report described it as one of the region’s most visited cinemas. This cultural attraction differs from the historic buildings: it is a cinema hall within a cultural center, while the church and paper mill complex illustrate the town’s architectural and industrial history.
