Church of the Kazan Icon of the Mother of God (Zelenogorsk)

Zelenogorsk, Primorskoye Highway, 547

The Church of the Kazan Icon of the Mother of God in Zelenogorsk was built on the elevated plot of Vasily Kolodyazhny with an area of 4300 square sazhens, chosen by the diocesan authorities instead of the smaller plot of the Durdins. According to Finnish Wikipedia, the temple was built in the Russo-Byzantine style of Konstantin Ton, while the Russian Wikipedia defines its style as Moscow-Yaroslavl of the 16th century. The main marble throne and the altar were donated by A.A. Lyubishchev, and the bells were donated by A.M. Alexandrov, N.A. Shitov, and A.I. Rezanova. According to the original project, the interior walls were planned to be painted, but with the beginning of the First World War, these plans were not implemented.
