Church of the Ascension

The Church of the Ascension of the Lord in Kolomna is an object of cultural heritage of federal significance. The double-light domed rotunda of the temple is built in the likeness of the rotunda on the Mount of Olives, which is why the church is called the "Kolomna Olivet". The original wooden seven-tiered iconostasis from 1797 with columns has been preserved in the temple, some carved overlay relief and several icons have partially survived, and in the row of the forefathers the saints Jacob, Abraham and Joseph are depicted. Among the holy relics are a cross with a particle of the Life-Giving Cross and an icon of the blessed Matrona of Moscow with a particle of her relics.
