Spiridon Trimiphuntskiy church, Eastern Orthodox church in Lomonosov, Russia

The Spiridon Trimiphuntskiy church is a wooden church on a granite foundation, rebuilt in 2008–2016 to its 1896 appearance. It measures 32 m long, 19 m wide and 25.5 m high with the cupola, and has stone pillars supporting the dome. Inside, the walls and ceiling are carved and painted pale pink, with icons of the evangelists in the dome's pendentives.

A wooden church for the Life Guards Volhynia Regiment was founded here on 2 October 1838, designed by Abram Melnikov and funded by the state at the initiative of Grand Duchess Elena Pavlovna and Grand Duke Mikhail Pavlovich. It was rebuilt in 1895–1896 to a design by military engineer Vladimir Shcheglov and consecrated on 8 September 1896 by Archbishop Arseny of Riga. Closed in 1930 and left derelict, it was dismantled in 2008 and rebuilt on the historic foundation; the first service followed on 28 August 2016.

The church is attached to the Church of the Nativity of John the Baptist in Malaya Izhora, Saint Petersburg Eparchy. Its patron, Saint Spyridon of Trimythous, is venerated as protector of soldiers; the regimental iconostasis came from the Life Guards Volhynia Regiment. Since 2002 the rector has been Oleg Emilianenko.

The church stands on Ilikovsky Prospekt in Lomonosov, on the granite foundation of the 1896 building. Services resumed in 2002 and the rebuilt church was first used on 28 August 2016. It is an active parish, so visits are best timed outside service hours.

During the 1895 dismantling of the first church, builders found a paper sealed in a glass vessel in the foundation, placed there at the 1838 consecration; it was reburied with a new note at the 1895 foundation ceremony. The 1896 church was consecrated by Arseny (Bryantsev), Archbishop of Riga and Mitau.
