Church of the Holy Martyr John the Warrior Yakimanka

The church of the Holy Martyr John the Warrior was built in memory of the Battle of Poltava, and, according to tradition, the church was erected from drawings made by  Peter I. 
The design of the church combines elements of both Moscow Baroque and Ukrainian Baroque. Unusually, the church remained opened during the 1930's and a number of religious works from abandoned or destroyed churches in the neighbourhood were placed here.
