St. Nicholas Edinoverie Church, Saint Petersburg
St. Nicholas Edinoverie Church, Saint Petersburg, Religious building on Marata Street, Saint Petersburg, Russia.
The building stands at the intersection of Marata Street and Kuznechny Lane, featuring late Empire style architecture with symmetrical forms and classical details.
Constructed between 1820 and 1838 under architect A. I. Melnikov's guidance, the church was funded by the Edinoverie Community through merchant K. Z. Chursinov.
The church served the Edinoverie members of Old Believers, a religious group recognized by the Russian Orthodox Church to maintain traditional liturgical practices.
The structure now functions as the Museum of the Arctic and Antarctic, following its transformation from a religious building in 1934.
The building represents a rare example of a religious structure that transitioned into a scientific museum while maintaining its federal cultural heritage status.
