Summary

[edit]
Description

Village Nikolskoye, Klin Raion, Moscow Oblast, Russia

Saint Nikolas Church was built by Alexey Danilovich Tatishchev (1697-1760) over the period 1738-1758. The church was closed and repurposed in 1937. The bell tower was demolished sometime in the 1950s in order to provide construction bricks for the nearby farm. The church was returned to the Russian Orthodox Church in 1995. Restoration began in 1995. Church Services are currently held in a small, heated chapel inside the church.

It is interesting to note that village Nikolskoye was the birthplace of the XVII c. Russian church architect Jacob Bukhvostov.
