      • Danilovskoye Cemetery opened in 1771, during the plague epidemic.
      • The stone church was built in 1829-1838, funded by S. L. Lepeshkin and designed by F. M. Shestakov.
      • The first wooden church here was consecrated on 31 December 1772.
      • Next to the Orthodox section, on the slope of a ravine, a Muslim cemetery was set aside — also for plague victims.
