Church of Our Merciful Saviour, Eastern Orthodox church in Tverskoy District, Russia

The Church of Our Merciful Saviour stands at 42 meters tall with a belltower crowned in gold, representing Russian Revival architecture in Moscow.

Construction of the church began in 1889 after local community members and Captain Matfei Kenin raised funds for its establishment.

The church houses an important icon of Our Lady the Merciful, which was brought from Mount Athos in Greece before construction began.

The church building underwent conversion into a naval rescue divers training center in 1932 and returned to Orthodox ownership in December 2012.

Engineers developed specific foundation solutions to address the boggy ground conditions before constructing the main structure of the church.
