Spiridon Trimiphuntskiy church, Orthodox church in Koptevo district, Moscow, Russia.
The Spiridon Trimiphuntskiy Church is an Orthodox temple in the Koptevo district of Moscow with a Neo-Byzantine dome and contemporary design. Inside, a carved iconostasis made from Georgian natural stone draws the eye, assembled from sections that were transported and installed piece by piece.
Construction began in 2016 as part of Moscow's 200 Churches Program and finished in 2022. The project marks a period when religious spaces were being restored to neighborhoods that had lacked them for decades.
The church sits on land once owned by Georgian Prince Georgy Bagrationi in the 18th century, a connection still felt in local stories today. This link to Georgian heritage shapes how people understand the place and attracts visitors interested in the cultural ties between Georgia and Moscow.
The church is reachable by public transit from multiple directions and welcomes visitors during regular services. Plan your visit around service times and explore the neighborhood on foot, as the area connects well to the surrounding district.
The iconostasis frame was carved in Georgia from various types of natural stone and then shipped to Moscow in sections. This cross-border craftsmanship weaves together building traditions from two countries into one work of art.
