Kähri Orthodox Church
The Orthodox church of the Archangel Michael at Kähri, in Tännassilma village near Põlva, was built of fieldstone and red brick in traditional historicist style and consecrated in 1900 by Bishop Agafangel of Riga and Mitau. It has an octagonal bell tower with a pyramid spire and a small onion-domed ridge turret, and inside the walls are lined with brick. After the congregation was closed in 1964 the church stood empty, until from 1988 to 1998 the Lutheran congregation of Põlva used it as a chapel and paid for its repair. It was reconsecrated as an Orthodox church in 1998.

Põlva lähedal Tännassilma külas asuv Kähri Peaingel Miikaeli õigeusu kirik ehitati põllukividest ja punastest tellistest traditsioonilises historitsistlikus stiilis ning selle pühitses 1900. aastal Riia ja Miitavi piiskop Agafangel. Kirikul on kaheksatahuline telkkiivriga kellatorn ja väike sibulkiivriga haritorn ning seest on seinad telliskivivoodriga. Pärast koguduse sulgemist 1964. aastal jäi kirik tühjaks, kuni aastatel 1988–1998 kasutas Põlva luterlik kogudus seda abikirikuna ja rahastas remonti. Õigeusu kirikuna pühitseti hoone taas 1998. aastal.
