Church of the Holy Mandylion at Andronikov Monastery
Church of the Holy Mandylion at Andronikov Monastery, Orthodox cathedral in Tagansky District, Moscow, Russia
The cathedral features white stone walls, narrow windows with pointed arches, and a single dome atop a stepped cylindrical drum structure.
The Church of the Holy Mandylion, constructed between 1410 and 1427, stands as the oldest preserved stone cathedral in Moscow.
The interior walls once displayed frescoes by Andrei Rublev, with small fragments still visible on the altar window frames today.
