Church of Sergius of Radonezh in Tsarskoye Selo

The Church of St. Sergius of Radonezh in Tsarskoye Selo, located in Pushkin on Furazhny Lane, was returned to believers, and on October 8, 2012, the first service after the Soviet period was held there. In the 20th century, the building, which was in federal ownership, was used as a warehouse, a café, and even a disco, and by the end of the 2000s, 30% of the church had lost its plaster and began to deteriorate. In a separate ark, a particle of the relics of St. Sergius of Radonezh is kept here, which was presented by Patriarch Kirill on the day of the consecration, and the vestments made of gold brocade are sewn from the shroud from the coffin of Empress Maria Alexandrovna.
