Saint Seraphim of Sarov church, Orthodox church at Serafimovskoe Cemetery in Saint Petersburg, Russia.

The wooden Orthodox church building features traditional Russian architectural elements with a three-part structure and decorative carvings throughout its exterior.

The construction of Saint Seraphim of Sarov Church began on July 25, 1906, and the consecration ceremony took place on March 1, 1907.

The church holds religious services, maintains a collection of sacred artifacts, and functions as a central point for Orthodox ceremonies at Serafimovskoe Cemetery.

The church opens daily for visitors and worshippers, offering regular services while maintaining its role as both a religious institution and cemetery chapel.

During the lifting of the Leningrad Blockade, the church bells rang continuously for two days to announce the liberation of the city.
