April. Worship cross in Kolomenskoye

In April it already becomes warm during the day despite the still quite cold nights and nature rapidly begins to grow. Bright green fresh grass quickly covers the ground, while the first shoots and buds appear cautiously on the trees. The worship cross of the village of Dyakova is located on the way to the temple from the Kashirskaya metro station. The village was founded in 1237, in 1960 it became part of Moscow, the worship cross was erected in 1980. And already in 1988 the village was evicted and destroyed, with the exception of a few houses. But the cross is still standing. On the cross the inscription reads: Bow down to the ancient land of our ancestors, remember them in your thoughts.
