      • The garden was laid out in the 1930s on the former grounds of the Matthew Church — hence the name.
      • Its official name is Kalininsky Garden, and its area is 1.24 hectares.
      • The monument to the playwright Alexander Volodin was unveiled in November 2022: he sits on a bronze bench.
      • Volodin lived for many years on Bolshaya Pushkarskaya Street.
