Church of Saint Nicholas in Bolvanovka, Orthodox church in Tagansky District, Russia

The Church of Saint Nicholas features five domes atop a four-sided building with a pyramid structure and an adjacent bell tower.

The stone church, completed in 1712, replaced a wooden structure from 1632 and became one of Moscow's last stone churches before Peter the Great's construction restrictions.

The building contains two separate worship spaces: a lower church dedicated to Saint Nicholas and an upper church consecrated to Saints Peter and Paul.

The religious complex stands at Verkhnyaya Radishchevskaya Street 20, Building 2, within walking distance from central Moscow's main attractions.

During the Soviet period, this federal cultural heritage site served different purposes, including a warehouse and later housed a research institute until 1990.
