Church of Saint Nicholas at Tverskaya Zastava
Church of Saint Nicholas at Tverskaya Zastava, Eastern Orthodox church at Tverskaya Square, Moscow, Russia
The brick church features a large central dome, four smaller corner domes, and a bell tower with a tent-shaped roof near Tverskaya Square.
Construction began in 1914 under architect Anton Gurzhienko, and the church received its consecration in 1921 following the Russian Revolution period.
The building serves the Russian Orthodox Old Believer community, preserving traditional religious practices that date back to pre-1666 Orthodox Christianity.
The church holds regular services in the main hall and Prophet Elijah chapel, with separate entrances for worshippers from Tverskaya Square.
The architecture draws inspiration from early Novgorod buildings, particularly resembling the Church of Our Savior on Nereditsa in design and structure.
Location: Tverskoy District
Architectural style: Russian Revival architecture
