      🏛 Armenian Church of St Catherine

      • The Armenian community took shape in Petersburg in 1710 and prayed in private houses for a long time.
      • Catherine II gave permission to build the church in 1770 at the petition of Ivan Lazarev, who paid for almost all of it.
      • The design of the church and of the buildings 40 and 42 that frame it was by Yury Felten.
      • The site was allotted on the grounds of the former Small Court Stables — in a position “prominent for the capital”, opposite Gostiny Dvor.
