Saint John the Baptist Church at Opoki, Eastern Orthodox church in Yaroslav's Court, Veliky Novgorod, Russia.

The Saint John the Baptist Church at Opoki features stone walls, domed roof structures, and traditional Russian ecclesiastical architectural elements from the 12th century.

Prince Vsevolod Mstislavich initiated the construction of this church in 1127, transferring its ownership to the Novgorod wax merchants' guild after completion.

The church maintained standards for weights and measures, including specific measurements for cloth lengths and scales for weighing precious metals and wax.
