Znamenskaya Church in Tsarskoe Selo, Orthodox church in Pushkin, Russia

The Znamenskaya Church features a three-nave basilica structure with a single dome and turquoise interior walls near the Catherine Palace complex.

Elizabeth I of Russia commissioned the construction of this stone church in 1747, making it the first permanent structure in Tsarskoe Selo.

The church contains a restored Baroque iconostasis and functions as an active Orthodox religious center within the Diocese of Saint Petersburg.

Located on Sadovaya Street, the church welcomes visitors to observe its architectural elements and participate in regular Eastern Orthodox services.
