Церковь Иоанна Богослова, Orthodox church in Likino-Dulyovo, Russia.
The Church of Saint John the Theologian is a house of worship featuring traditional Russian architecture with characteristic domes in Likino-Dulyovo. The building has a cross-shaped layout that was designed to accommodate larger congregations.
The building was established in 1887 with support from factory workers and factory owner Matvei Kuznetsov. It was later modified to accommodate the expanding congregation within the growing town.
The church serves as a spiritual center where Orthodox traditions continue to shape the daily religious life of the community. Local worshippers gather here for celebration and prayer throughout the year.
The building is accessible to visitors and worshippers throughout the week. It is helpful to check ahead for local visiting times and services, as hours may vary depending on religious observances.
The church was relocated from its original site in the village of Gora, showing a remarkable story of community effort. This move came about through the dedication of factory workers and their employer working together.
