St. Alexander Nevsky church in Ust-Izhora
St. Alexander Nevsky church in Ust-Izhora, Orthodox church in Ust-Izhora, Russia.
The stone church building stands at the intersection of Shlisselburgskoe Highway and the Neva River, featuring Eastern Orthodox architectural elements throughout its structure.
The church was constructed in 1798 at the location where Prince Alexander Nevsky and his army defeated Swedish forces during the Battle of Neva in 1240.
The church maintains regular Orthodox services and preserves religious traditions while serving as a testament to Russian military achievements of the 13th century.
Visitors can reach the church by taking public transportation from Saint Petersburg to Ust-Izhora, approximately 30 kilometers east of the city center.
Two monuments dedicated to Alexander Nevsky stand near the church, marking the exact spot where Russian forces assembled before their victory against Swedish invaders.
