Church of the Deposition of the Robe

The Church of the Deposition of the Robe stands at the intersection of religious architecture and Russian heritage, featuring a brick construction in Naryshkin Baroque style.

Construction of the church began in 1484 by masters from Pskov, who likely also designed the Cathedral of the Annunciation in the Moscow Kremlin complex.

The four-level iconostasis, created by Nazary Istomin Savin in 1627, contains frescoes painted by artists Ivan Borisov and Semyon Abramov in 1644.

Located at coordinates 55.72 latitude and 37.604444 longitude, the church maintains its status as a federal cultural heritage site in Russia.

The church houses a collection of wooden sculptures spanning from the 14th to 19th centuries, representing different periods of Russian Orthodox art.
