      🏛 Vazhe Lake Monastery Metochion

      ул. Крупской, 5

      A big two-storey church of the early 20th century that stood for almost a century as a factory workshop, a military enlistment office and a court; services are held again in the lower church.

      • The Petersburg metochion of the Karelian Vazhe Lake Monastery opened in 1895.
      • The stone church was laid in 1897 — in memory of the rescue of Alexander III and his family in the train crash at Borki.
      • The building was built by the engineer N. N. Nikonov in 1899–1903.
      • In 1929 the church was closed: there was a factory workshop, a military enlistment office and then a district court here.
      • Since August 2014 services have been held again in the lower Church of the Prophet Hosea.
