      🏛 Church of “Joy of All Who Sorrow” on Lakhtinskaya Street

      Лахтинская ул., 12

      A church at a former shelter for disabled children: in Soviet times its facade was “straightened”, and in the 2000s the church was returned.

      • Built in 1899–1902 to a design by Pyotr Mayer at a shelter for disabled and paralysed children.
      • The building was originally in the Russian style, with onion domes.
      • In 1927 the church was closed, and in 1929 its facade was rebuilt in the classical style and a dome removed.
      • In the late 1980s the building stood abandoned; in the early 2000s it was restored and the church reopened.
