Saint Peter and Paul church in Engineers' Castle, Church building in Engineers' Castle, Saint Petersburg, Russia
The Saint Peter and Paul Church features a rectangular layout with decorative pilasters and cherub heads adorning the windows within the Engineers' Castle complex.
The Engineering House, containing the church, was constructed from 1748 to 1749 under the supervision of military engineer N.I. Muravyev in Saint Petersburg.
The church represents the integration of religious and military institutions, serving both spiritual needs and reflecting Russian military engineering traditions.
The church exists as part of the Museum of the History of St. Petersburg, allowing visitors to explore both religious architecture and military engineering heritage.
The location within a fortress complex demonstrates how religious structures were incorporated into military installations during 18th-century Russian architecture.
