The article considers the land provision of the Russian Church and clergy in the post-reform period. It is shown that during this period the government gradually increased the land ownership of the clergy, since this did not contradict the already established dependence of the Church on the state. The reason for this process was that after secularization, the Church was supported by the state, and the government could not provide the Church with anything but land, since insufficient state funds were allocated for the Church. In addition to land grants, the State continued to pay staff salaries to monasteries, including the salary of the brethren, as well as alms (for the maintenance of provincial monasteries). But in most cases, state payments were auxiliary, not basic. At the present time, which is undoubtedly favorable for the Church and its activities, new difficulties and tasks arise before it. In particular, since most of the parishes are located in rural areas, there is a question of granting land plots to rural clergy.
