Znamenskaya Church, Orthodox church in Dubrovitsy, Russia
The octagonal tower of the white stone church rises above the confluence of the Pakhra and Desna rivers, crowned with a gilded metal crown.
Prince Boris Golitsyn, Peter the Great's mentor, commissioned the church's construction in 1690, with its consecration taking place in 1704 during Peter's attendance.
The interior displays biblical scenes accompanied by Latin verses in cartouches, while stone carvings of saints and angels decorate the exterior walls.
The church conducts services such as baptisms, weddings, and funeral ceremonies, requiring advance arrangements with the resident priest.
The church features a twelve-petaled plan with rounded lobes, representing a departure from traditional Russian Orthodox architectural designs of the period.
