More information on Church of St Barbara (Tserkov' Varvary)

This small peach-colored church is one of the oldest stone buildings in Moscow. It was built in the 16th century and was reconstructed between the 18-19th centuries. Then again in the 1960s it was restored to its original style, but was only given back to the Orthodox Church and consecrated in 1994. The bookshop is open daily, but the church itself is closed to the public for continuing restoration.
