Მოსკოვის კრემლის ჯვართამაღლების ეკლესია, Orthodox church in Moscow Kremlin, Russia
The Church of the Exaltation of the Cross stands within the Terem Palace complex, featuring traditional Russian Orthodox architectural elements and white stone walls.
Built in 1681 during the reign of Tsar Feodor III, the church served as a private chapel for the royal family within the Moscow Kremlin.
The church contains religious artifacts and Orthodox icons that reflect the spiritual traditions of Russian imperial court life through the centuries.
Visitors can access the church through guided tours of the Moscow Kremlin complex, which require advance booking and security clearance.
The church holds the distinction of being one of the few surviving examples of late 17th-century private royal chapels in Russia.
