Saviour Gates, Historical entrance gate in Kolomenskoe, Russia

The Saviour Gates at Kolomenskoe is a 17th-century brick gateway on the western edge of the tsar's court, with two passages: a wide one for carts and carriages and a narrow one for pedestrians. Three-quarter columns, profiled archivolts and a frieze of dentils frame the arches, and the roof takes the rare form of a "crossed barrel" topped by a pierced metal crest.

The exact construction date is unknown; the gate may have been built during the rebuilding of the estate in the 1670s, possibly in 1671–1672. It was repaired in 1735 and 1742, and by the late 18th century it had become the main entrance to the estate. The wooden top was replaced by a hipped roof after repairs in 1868, and the present barrel-shaped roof was installed during restoration in 1977–1978.

The name "Saviour" reflects a common Russian tradition of placing religious dedications above gateways to invoke protection. Visitors passing through today walk the same threshold that tsars crossed when arriving at their summer grounds.

The gates sit within the Kolomenskoe Museum Reserve and can be reached on foot from the park entrance. The grounds have uneven surfaces, so sturdy footwear is a good idea, especially after rain or in winter.

The gate's completion is a "crossed barrel" roof, a form rare for gateways, installed in the 1977–1978 restoration after researchers studied a 1740 inventory. Its ridge was crowned with a pierced metal crest. In the 19th century, Peter I's monograms and double-headed eagles were set into the keel-shaped kokoshniks of the upper tier.
