      • In 1696, on the initiative of Franz Lefort, a wooden church was built here for the soldiers of the 1st Moscow Regiment.
      • The current stone church was built in 1711.
      • The church was never closed in Soviet times, and even the bells survived.
      • A chapel at the Vvedenskoye Cemetery, in the former Erlanger mausoleum, is attached to it.
