      • The church is known since 1625; the stone building went up in 1652-1665, funded by parishioners.
      • Alexander Herzen was baptised here in spring 1812, and a few years later so was his future wife, Natalya Zakharyina.
      • In 1932 the Kamerny Theatre proposed demolishing the building, but the proposal failed.
      • The domes were restored in 1990, and the church was returned to the Church in 1991.
