“The history of the church begins in the 14th century, when Fyodor Sviblo ordered the construction of a wooden church in the name of the life-giving Trinity in his village on the banks of the Yauza River. Fyodor Andreevich occupied a high position under Prince Dmitry Donskoy and owned rooms in the Kremlin in Moscow. The tower located next to them was later named in his honor – Sviblova. Today it is better known as Vodovzvodnaya,” the Mayor of Moscow wrote.
The first reliable mention of the Church of the Life-Giving Trinity dates back to the beginning of the 17th century. At this time, under the direction of the next owner of the village, Andrei Pleshcheev, a new village was built on the site of the burned church. In 1704–1708, the stone building was built by an associate of Peter I, Moscow Governor Kirill Naryshkin. Later, the chapel of St. George the Victorious and the bell tower were added to the temple.
Over the years, the Sviblovo estate belonged to the noble families of the Golitsyns, Vysotskys, Kazeevs, Kozhevnikovs and Khalatovs. At the beginning of the 19th century, historian and writer Nikolai Karamzin lived there.
The architecture of the temple is not uniform and is therefore considered unique. It contains elements of Naryshkin and Peter the Great baroque.
The restoration affected both the facade and interior of the temple. Experts cleaned the basement, bricks, white stone and brick decorations for the facades of the temple and bell tower, designed the windows and doors of the gate. Particular attention was paid to the stucco molding on the bell tower: the top of the bell floor and the columns have been restored.
On the interior, the plaster finishes and floors of the first floor were restored.
“The Cathedral of the Life-Giving Trinity, a cultural heritage of federal significance and one of the architectural symbols of northeast Moscow, will once again delight with its unique beauty and reminders of its wonderful history,” concluded Sergei Sobyanin.
