The church on Borisovskie ponds was designed in the Byzantine style; is a one-domed cruciform building with four aisles; height with a cross - 70 m; capacity - up to 4 thousand people. The porcelain iconostasis is made in the tradition of the Kuznetsov workshops of the 19th century. In the basement of the temple there is a baptistery for baptism of adults through full immersion. The complex of the Patriarch's courtyard on Borisovskie ponds also includes a clergy house, a Sunday school, a belfry and a chapel in the name of St. blgv. book Alexander Nevsky. By the spring of 2004, the construction of the temple building was completed. Conceived as a monument to the 1000th anniversary of the Baptism of Rus.
When designing the gate bell tower, the developers considered two options: to build it as a free-standing one or as a gate tower. The solution was chosen in favor of the gate. Indeed, the choice turned out to be successful: the belfry became an adornment of the temple complex, while fulfilling its direct function. It owes its non-standard size to the central entrance to the complex, located under the belfry. The belfry was built in record time, but the external decoration with marble decorations took a long time. Round shape, blue dome, marble decorations - everything is matched in the same style with the whole complex. Back in 2001, 11 bells were brought (the largest of them weighs almost 2500 kilograms), which were installed on the belfry only in 2002, and already in 2003 a platform was erected on the belfry and a “control system” was installed. It should be noted that the bells during the three years of construction never stopped and accompanied weekly Sunday prayers with the reading of akathists.

Trinity Church on Borisovskiye Prudy (Borisovskiye Prudy Street, house number 15, building 4).
By 1996, in Orekhovo-Borisov, the second largest church in the capital was built - the Cathedral of the Life-Giving Trinity, which can accommodate up to three thousand people. It became the center of a larger new complex - the Patriarchal Compound in honor of the 1000th anniversary of the Baptism of Rus. The complex, visible from the Kashirskoye highway, includes the buildings of the Patriarch's courtyard, which include, at the stern of the cathedral, the chapel of the Blessed Prince Alexander Nevsky, the belfry, the building of the Sunday school and the clergy's house with administrative premises.
The idea of building the administrative center of the Russian Orthodox Church was born in 1988, in the year of the 1000th anniversary of the Baptism of Rus. A competition was held, in which the project of the architect A.T. Polyansky. But the start of work was postponed, Polyansky died in 1993, without starting construction. The project was returned after thirteen years, and it was radically altered. The church area was reduced by more than five times, and it was 1100 square meters. In October 2000, the Baltic Construction Company began construction work. Already in 2001, the church complex began to grow before our eyes. The first completed building was a chapel in the name of the faithful prince Alexander Nevsky. A little later, the builders erected a bell tower, on the sides of which there are chapels. The forms of the bell tower in miniature repeat the Trinity Church. The lower tier of the belfry is the gateway to the entire complex; it is to them that the road from the Kashirskoye highway approaches through the bridge. By the beginning of 2004, construction was completed. Particularly laborious work was carried out on the interior decoration of the temple, where expensive materials were used - marble, gilding. In addition, a porcelain iconostasis made by the St. Petersburg art restoration workshop "Guild of Masters" by Yuri Volkotrub was brought to the cathedral, which is distinguished by elegance and the highest performance. The paintings were carried out under the direction of the Honored Artist of Russia Vasily Nesterenko. The group of icon painters was headed by Anna Belyanova. On May 19, 2004, the church was consecrated and the first liturgy was served. The temple was built in the Byzantine style.
This is a one-domed cubic building, to which semicircular exedra are attached on all four sides, while the plan of the temple turned out to be cruciform. In the eastern exedra there is the main altar, in the side chapels, the western one is the vestibule. The temple is covered with a powerful sailing vault, resting on the walls, as in the ancient Byzantine buildings. The building was completed with a powerful dome, in the drum of which there are twelve windows according to the number of the apostles. The huge spherical ribbed dome is painted bright blue - a symbol of the Mother of God and the angelic forces. The temple seems to be multi-domed, since the shape of the dome is repeated by the half-domes of the exedra, which are almost equal in diameter to the main dome. The bell tower from the west is completed with the same, only more miniature, domes and half-domes. The walls are painted in a warm pinkish color, somewhat reminiscent of the color of the walls of the first ancient Russian churches in Kiev and Novgorod. On the territory of the Patriarchal courtyard, a two-story parable building was also built. An underground passage has been made from the clerk's house to the temple.
The complex also includes a Sunday school building. The buildings of the complex, both church and secular, are decorated with mosaics made in the workshop of Yekaterina Ogorodnikova in St. Petersburg. The complex of the Patriarch's courtyard also includes a baptistery, which is a separate room that allows you to baptize everyone - from babies to old people. A white-stone arched pedestrian bridge connects the Patriarchskoye Highway with the Kashirskoye Highway, leading to the bell tower over the gate.

Temples and monasteries of Moscow and the region
The Church of the Life-Giving Trinity at Borisovskie Ponds (it is also the Church of the Life-Giving Trinity in honor of the millennium of the Baptism of Rus in Orekhov-Borisov) was built in 2004 in memory of the millennium anniversary of the Baptism of Rus. (Address: Kashirskoe highway, 61a).
I want to show three of my favorite remake temples. These temples are very beautiful, but there is nothing special to say about them, so the text will be boring.
2.
The emergence of the village of Borisov is associated with the name of Tsar Boris Godunov. At the end of the 16th century, Godunov built a developed cascade of ponds on the Gorodenka River, which flowed through the palace estate. The upper pond began at the village of Chernaya Gryaz (later - Tsaritsyno).
3.
On the shore of the last, eastern pond, the settlement of Borisovo arose - an economic settlement of the palace village of Kolomenskoye. The pond has retained the ancient name "Borisovsky" or "Tsareborisovsky". Borisovo was part of the palace lands until 1917.
4.
As a village with a church, Borisovo was first mentioned in the payroll books of the patriarchal order for 1628. This does not mean that there was no church place here before. The first wooden church was dedicated to St. Nicholas.
5.
Then a new, white-stone church was built, dedicated to the Holy Life-Giving Trinity. The exact date of its construction is unknown.
6.
The church stood near the very shore of the pond, and the old cemetery was located nearby. Such an inconvenient location of the cemetery next to water was completely unacceptable for sanitary reasons.
7.
Moreover, the construction of the palace complex in Tsaritsyno with all kinds of dams caused a further sharp rise in water.
8.
The old white-stone church quickly fell into decay from constant dampness and threatened to collapse.
9.
The collection of donations for the construction of a new church on the hill began, but it progressed very slowly, since a third of the Borisov village was made up of Old Believers.
10.
The new church was built and consecrated in 1873, finishing lasted until 1874. At the same time, a large bell was raised on the bell tower.
11.
Under the Bolsheviks, the church was closed, partially destroyed and adapted for the grain storage of the Borisov state farm.
12.
In the summer of 1988, in the year of the celebration of the 1000th anniversary of the Baptism of Rus, on the banks of the Borisov ponds in the Orekhovo-Borisovo region, the foundation stone of the Life-Giving Trinity Church dedicated to this event was consecrated. The construction of the temple began only in 2000 at a new location near the Kashirskoye highway.
13.
In October 2000, with the blessing of His Holiness Patriarch Alexy II of Moscow and All Russia, a cross was erected in a new place and the first prayer service was held, and on September 1, 2001, with a huge crowd of people, the foundation stone of the future Church of the Life-Giving Trinity was consecrated.
14.
The complex, which has the status of a Patriarchal courtyard, consists of a church, a clergy house, a children's music school and three chapels. The temple can simultaneously accommodate up to 4000 people.
All domes are painted blue - a symbol of the Mother of God and angelic forces.

Fais se que dois advienne que peut. Moscow Church in honor of the Life-Giving Trinity in Orekhov-Borisov, the patriarchal courtyard in honor of the 1000th anniversary of the Baptism of Rus within the Moscow diocese
The Trinity Church and other buildings of the patriarchal courtyard were erected on the banks of the Borisov ponds, on a complex but picturesque landscape. The buildings are visible from the Kashirskoye highway, from which a white-stone arched pedestrian bridge leads to the gate bell tower.
The idea of building the administrative center of the Russian Orthodox Church was put forward in the year, in connection with the celebration of the 1000th anniversary of the Baptism of Rus. The official permission to build a new church in Moscow became a sensation at the time. The temple was founded on June 13, 1988 in the area of Tsaritsyn ponds, near the Kashirskoye highway. The laying of the stone at the foundation of the temple was accompanied by a divine service with the participation of the Patriarch of Moscow and All Russia Pimen. At that time, the chief priest expressed the meaning of the temple in the following words:
"So, the first stone was laid in the foundation of the future temple, dedicated to the 1000th anniversary of the Baptism of Rus, a temple in memory of all our compatriots, who laid down their lives in defending the sacred borders of our Motherland in the Patriotic Wars" .
A competition was held, in which the project of the architect Anatoly Polyansky won. The RNO was organized to build a temple in honor of the Millennium of the Baptism of Rus (in the years the director was Archpriest Sergiy Suzdaltsev), but the start of work was postponed. In the year Polyansky died, and then the main temple-building project of the capital was the restoration of the Cathedral of Christ the Savior. As a result, the construction of the temple began only thirteen years later, and the original project was radically revised. The area allocated for the new patriarchal courtyard in honor of the 1000th anniversary of the Baptism of Rus was reduced by more than five times, and it was 1100 square meters.
Architecture
The Trinity Church is the focus of the patriarchal courtyard in honor of the 1000th anniversary of the Baptism of Rus, which also includes a chapel, a bell tower, a Sunday school building, a two-story clergy house with administrative premises (connected to the temple by an underground passage). The domes of the courtyard buildings are painted in bright blue - a symbol of the Mother of God and angelic forces, and the walls - in a warm pinkish color, reminiscent of the color of the walls of the first Russian churches in Kiev and Novgorod.
Trinity Church
The massive temple was built in a neo-Byzantine style. The capacity is up to three thousand people, the height with the cross is 70 meters. It is a one-domed cubic building, to which semicircular exedra are attached on all four sides, which made the plan of the temple cruciform. In the eastern exedra (apse) there is the main altar, in the side - side-altars, and the western one is the vestibule. The temple is covered with a powerful sailing vault, resting on the walls, as in the ancient Byzantine buildings. The building was completed with a majestic hemispherical ribbed dome, in the drum of which there are twelve windows according to the number of the apostles. The half-domes of the exedras repeat the shape of the dome and are almost equal in diameter, which makes the temple seem multi-domed.
Alexander Nevsky chapel
The chapel in the name of the blessed Grand Duke Alexander Nevsky was the first structure erected in the courtyard. Located southwest of the temple. The building is crowned with a hemispherical
