🏛 Church of Alexander Nevsky

пер. Щуппа, 10, Красное Село

Kosyakov's wooden regimental church (1890), where Patriarch Kirill's father served; restoration was completed in 2025.

The church was consecrated on 16 July 1890 in the presence of Grand Duke Vladimir Alexandrovich and Grand Duchess Maria Pavlovna.
The wooden church in the "Russian style", for 500 people, was built with money from the merchant A. F. Cherepennikov.
Parishioners included staff of the military hospital and garrison, as well as residents of the Kolomenskaya and Fabrichnaya settlements.
In occupied Krasnoye Selo in 1942 the Germans allowed the church to open; it survived the war undamaged.
In 1947 a three-tiered iconostasis with gilded Royal Doors was moved here from the church in Taitsy.
The restoration strengthened the foundation and walls and recreated the lost domes with crosses.
