A Corner of Old Moscow. Temple in Kadashi

The painting depicts the Church of the Resurrection of Christ in Kadashi, as seen from the Tretyakov Gallery in Lavrushinsky Lane. This is an Orthodox church of the Moskvoretsky Deanery of the Moscow Diocese. The church is located in the Yakimanka district of the Central Administrative District of Moscow, between two main roads to the south - Polyanka and Ordynka (2nd Kadashevsky Lane, 7/14). The Resurrection Church in Zamoskvorechye was first mentioned at the end of the 15th century as a wooden one. Later, at the beginning of the 17th century, the name "in Kadashi" appeared, when the church became the spiritual center of the Kadashevskaya Sloboda - the largest in Zamoskvorechye, which experienced its heyday in the middle of the 17th century, during the era of Tsar Alexei Mikhailovich. The church was built in the Moscow Baroque style. The Kadashevskaya Sloboda Museum operates at the church, housed in one of the church buildings. It was created on the basis of a rich collection of ceramics, arrowheads, household items and tiles found during archaeological research, restoration and the laying of communications.
