The lower, warm church with the throne of the holy noble princes Boris and Gleb was consecrated in 1688, the upper one with the throne of the holy Equal-to-the-Apostles Prince Vladimir - in 1704 and the side chapel of St. Nicholas the Wonderworker - in 1690). In 1879, a bell tower was added and a clergy house was built. In the Moscow Baroque style, two-story, three-domed. The building is rectangular in plan, on a high basement, with two staircases. Above it are two octagonal tiers (the upper one is the ringing tier - “like bells”) and chapters crowned with an octagonal drum. Adjacent to the main building on the sides are a quadrangular (with corners cut off from the outside) altar ledge and a vestibule, completed with domes. Decorated with arched niches, three-quarter columns and figured ridges.

In 1938 it was closed, looted and abandoned. The carved iconostasis in the Moscow Baroque style was destroyed. The four-pillar bell tower with an open belfry was destroyed. Rebuilt as warehouses, it was occupied by institutions, a workshop, and an archive. In the 1960s and since 1979 it has been restored (architect K.G. Polunina). In July 1989, services were resumed. The shrine is the especially revered Tikhvin Icon of the Mother of God.

A two-story temple “like bells” (that is, with a tier of ringing crowning the building), built in 1688 in the “Moscow Baroque” style by boyar B. Prozorovsky (architect Yakov Bukhvostov). The Lower Warm Church was consecrated in 1688 in honor of St. equal to book Vladimir, the upper church - in 1704 in honor of Sts. bgg. knn. Boris and Gleb. The idea is simple and profound: the feat of the holy passion-bearers Princes Boris and Gleb was nurtured (prepared) by their father, the holy Equal-to-the-Apostles Prince Vladimir. The bell tower was added in 1879.

The temple building is brick, cruciform in plan on an arched basement. Staircases on arches adjoin the temple from the west and south. In the 19th century, the state commission classified the temple as an architectural monument and mentioned it as a valuable monument of icon painting and interior decoration. This is confirmed by the fact that the model of the temple is exhibited in the Central Archaeological Cabinet at the Moscow Theological Academy in the Trinity-Sergius Lavra.

In difficult times for the faith, the last two priests of the temple performed the feat of confession: the father and son of the Kharyuzovs. On September 14, 1937, Fr. Alexander Kharyuzov (executed on January 9, 1938). Despite death threats, his son, Priest Nikolai Kharyuzov, took his place. In November, authorities arrested him and sentenced him to 10 years in labor camp. Father Nikolai survived the repressions and died in 1963, being a cleric of the Vladimir diocese. It seems significant that it was precisely in these terrible times that Priest Alexy Speransky (canonized by the Bishops' Council of the Russian Orthodox Church in 2000), who served in the Church of St. Boris and Gleb as a psalm-reader in 1902-1909.

At the end of the 1930s, the temple was closed and abandoned. In 1940-1941 the building remained without locks or security. As a result, all the wooden parts in the temple were broken, starting from the ancient carved iconostasis and ending with window and door frames. The bell tower was destroyed. Miraculously, the Royal Doors, several icons and carved columns were preserved. Now they are in the Kolomenskoye Museum. Subsequently, the temple was used as a vegetable storehouse, a branch of a precious metals plant with a galvanic bath located in the altar of the lower temple, and the archive of the Ministry of Machine Industry. The last owner blocked the dome of the temple with two floors of ceilings with flights of stairs.

In the 1960s Cosmetic painting of the facade was carried out. In May 1989, the temple was returned to the believers, and on July 28, 1989, the first Divine Liturgy was celebrated. In 1990, restoration of the building began. Thrones: upper church - St. bgg. knn. Boris and Gleb, St. Nicholas (attached); lower church - St. equal to book Vladimir

The village of Zyuzino, according to scribe books of 1627 - 28. “the village of Skryabino, Skoryatino, Zyuzino, also, on a stream, and under it a pond, Moscow district, Chermnev Stan, an estate behind the boyar Prince Alexei Yuryevich Sitsky, which was the former estate behind the head of the Streltsy Fyodor Chelyuskin, in the village the courtyard of the boyar landowners, in it business people live, a courtyard of clerks and 6 courtyards of business people, and that estate was assigned to Prince Sitsky according to the import document of 1618.”

In 1646, “the estate belonged to the boyar Gleb Ivanovich Morozov, the village of Skryabino, Zyuzino, and in the village there was a boyar’s courtyard, a clerk’s courtyard, 2 human courtyards and 13 peasant courtyards.” In this village, under the boyar G.I. Morozov, a wooden church was built in the name of Boris and Gleb, and in what year is unknown, and the village began to be called the village after the church Borisovsky, Zyuzino also.

After the death of boyar Morozov, the estate passed to his wife, the widow boyar Fedosya Prokofievna, with her son Ivan Glebovich, and after her it was approved by a refusal book in 1664, which says: “the village of Borisovskoye, Zyuzino, too, and in the village the church in the name of Boris and Gleb is wooden , kletzki, the priests are serving at that church, depending on the weather, in the yard there is the sexton Fedka Mikhailov.”

In 1666, the estate of Ivan Glebovich Morozov, after his death, by decree of the great sovereign, was assigned to the palace department. In the description books of the same year it is mentioned: “the village of Zyuzino, on the enemy, and in the enemy there are 4 ponds, and in the ponds the fish are small crucian carp, and in the village there is a wooden church, kletsk, and in the church there are images and candles, and books, and every church building and on the bell tower of the bell of boyar Gleb Ivanovich Morozov, near the church in the courtyard of the priest Ilya Denisov, and his nephew, the sexton Oleshka Mikiforov, lives with him, and the mallow maker Maryitsa lives with him, in the courtyard of Fedka Mikhailov, and in the village the courtyard of the patrimonial estates.”

In the parish salary books of the Patriarchal State Order it is written: “in 1677, according to the signature of the Chudov Monastery, the charterer of the hierodeacon Moses, the church of the passion-bearers Boris and Gleb of the Great Sovereign arrived again in the palace village of Zyuzin and that church, according to the tale of priest Dmitry, tribute was due from the priest’s courtyard, with parish peasants' best 12 households, from hay fields from 45 kopecks of hay, according to the decree, a total of 23 altyn 4 money, arrival hryvnia; That money was taken, he paid, priest Dmitry, Nikitko Obolyaninov accepted.”

In 1687, the village of Borisovskoye, also known as Zyuzino, was granted to Prince Boris Ivanovich Prozorovsky; apparently, under him, a stone church was built in this village. In 1704, in this village there were courtyards: votchinniki, clerk, stable and gardener, 12 peasant courtyards. In 1721, by personal decree, this village was given into the possession of Prince Alexander Nikitich Prozorovsky and the same year it was approved by him with a refusal book, which mentions: “in the village there is a stone church with two services: the lower one - in the name of St. Prince Vladimir, the upper one - in the name of Boris and Gleb; on that church there is a stone bell tower at the top; Yes, in the same village the wooden church, Kletsk, in the name of Prince Vladimir and Boris and Gleb, is dilapidated and stands without services.” After Prince A.N. Prozorovsky, the village was owned in 1740 by his son Alexander, in 1778 by his own grandson, Prince Dmitry Alexandrovich, from whom it was purchased in 1780 by Prince Vladimir Petrovich Prozorovsky and from the latter sold in the same year to his wife Anisima Titova Knyazeva - Irina Afanasyevna.

"The owners of the village: A. Yu. Sitsky since 1618; Morozovs - 1646-1656; palace - 1666-1686; Prozorovskys - 1686-1780; I. A. Knyazeva - 1780; Beketovs - 1785-1852; A. I. Vasilkov - 1890."

“The construction of the temple began in 1688 by boyar B. Prozorovsky, an associate of young Peter. The general composition of the church is reminiscent of the temple in Trinity-Lykovo. This makes it possible to assume that its architect could have been the same master - Yakov Bukhvostov, who usually worked “with his comrades” "It is curious that the windows of the temple are devoid of platbands, which would become so obligatory a few years later."

“Immediately upon receiving Zyuzin, B.I. Prozorovsky, in addition to building the church, rebuilt the old Morozov mansions “in the Western style.”

"The lower warm church in the name of St. Prince Vladimir was consecrated on September 1, 1688. The upper church in the name of St. Boris and Gleb - in 1704. The bell tower was added to the church in 1879 and at the same time, probably, a brick house was also built clergy on the southwest corner of the site." (Act of inspection of the temple, signed by the architect N. Tikhomirov. Without the year, from the restoration archive.)

“In the temple there was a wonderful carved iconostasis from the Naryshkin Baroque era and the same master’s box.”

“The church was closed in 1938. In 1940-1941, it was left without locks and security, which local residents took advantage of, breaking out absolutely all the wooden parts in it for heating - starting with the magnificent iconostasis, identical to the temple, and ending with window and door frames and bindings" (Act of N. Tikhomirov).

The first restoration took place in the late 1950s. until the mid-1960s.

In 1966, the building housed a diamond-making workshop. As M. L. Bogoyavlensky recorded, pipes and motors were attached to the walls. Bell tower of the late 19th century. - a small open belfry on 4 pillars, on which, according to old-timers, large bells formerly hung, - until 1966 it still retained its spire and roof sheathing. By 1978, all this had already collapsed - only brick pillars remained. These were also subsequently demolished.

In 1979, a new restoration of the temple began, led by restorer K. G. Polunina. Unfortunately, the restorers considered the bell tower of 1879 “late” - although it was of a rare form, and did not prevent its complete destruction.

The temple is under state protection under number 398. In 1980, it was still occupied by an archive without a sign, and there was no entrance for visitors to view it.

Under the same security number with the addition of “a”, the only building remaining from the “Zyuzino estate of the 17th-19th centuries” is listed as the only building of the Lunins’ estate - an outbuilding of the 18th, 19th centuries.

Back in 1955, there were more remains of the estate: “The side buildings from the 1820s survived from the manor house of the Beketov nobles in Zyuzin; in the neglected park there are two dug ponds and traces of pavilions or grottoes,” reports. Now there is only a temple and one outbuilding.

In 1988, the question of returning the temple to believers was raised, which caused fierce resistance from the authorities, who decided to give it instead to the “Center for Oriental Medicine.”

"From the community of Orthodox Christians living in the Sevastopol region of Moscow.

It is still possible to save a unique creation of Russian architecture - a 17th-century church, consecrated 300 years ago in the name of the baptizer of Rus', Prince Vladimir, and the first Russian martyrs Boris and Gleb. It was closed and looted in 1938.

During the time after the closure of the temple and its use by various tenant organizations, the rich iconostasis was lost, the interior was significantly distorted by the construction of ceilings and partitions, the completion of the bell tower was destroyed - despite the fact that the Church of Boris and Gleb is under state protection as an architectural monument of the 17th century.

Until recently, the building-monument was used by the Ministry of Tool and Machine Tool Industry of the USSR as an archive, while the operation of the building was carried out in gross violations of the elementary requirements of the legislation on the protection and use of historical and cultural monuments. This barbaric attitude towards the pearl of domestic architecture was repeatedly raised in the MGO and the regional branch of VOOPIK. Behind Lately, as noted by a group of VOOPIK specialists, the condition of the temple has deteriorated significantly - a serious crack has appeared in the wall of the building, which can lead to the final destruction of the monument. Experts - architects and restorers - argue that for the longevity of the temple a true owner is necessary. As practice shows, architectural monuments of a religious nature are preserved as much as possible if they are used in accordance with their intended purpose.

Since May 1988, residents of the Sevastopol district of Moscow have been unsuccessfully trying to convince official authorities of the importance and moral significance of handing over the temple to believers. Deputy Chairman of the District Executive Committee V.L. Vorobyov stated that “if the temple had been completely destroyed, it could have been given to the believers, but otherwise it will still serve us.” Meanwhile, in Sevastopol and in the two adjacent districts - Sovetsky and Cheryomushkinsky, with a population of more than one and a half million inhabitants, there is not a single functioning temple. In response to the statement of believers to the district executive committee, the “district fathers” responded that it was impossible to register a religious community, since there was no special room for the practice of religious needs. But what about the temple of Boris and Gleb? It is being given “to the service” of the Youth Medical Center, which has already received a number of large premises in the area. According to the plan of the leaders of the IMC, the temple will be a place for “medical confessions”, as well as a club with various entertainment events. It is planned to install an organ in the temple, which will entail a new violation of the requirements for the use of the monument, and therefore will hasten the death of the temple. It is absolutely not necessary to use dynamite to blow up a shrine; you can destroy it with the help of deliberate barbarism, unnoticeable and win-win.

There are many believers in our area, we cannot turn a blind eye to this; many of them are elderly and sick people. They travel in overcrowded transport to distant and already overloaded temples. Why are the spiritual needs of elderly and sick people so selective?! For drug addicts and alcoholics - please Orthodox church, but there is no room for believers?! For believers, the church is the House of God, a shrine, and therefore any use of the temple for other than its intended purpose is inhumane and immoral. The temple was built at the expense of believers and should belong to believers. Such upbringing of young people cannot bear worthy fruits when before their very eyes there is a mockery of the shrine and memory of their ancestors. Don't our district and city leaders understand this?

We, the religious Orthodox community, contact the newspaper, hoping to receive help in our quest to restore justice. I would like to believe that our state has not thrown us, the believers, “overboard”, and that relations between the state and the church are indeed developing in line with the democratic processes of renewal.

“On the day of remembrance of the Holy Equal-to-the-Apostles Prince Vladimir, a minor consecration of the temple took place in one of the districts of Moscow - Zyuzin. The church was built in the 17th century, two-story. The upper temple is in honor of the holy noble princes Boris and Gleb, and the lower one, which was consecrated, - in honor of the Holy Equal-to-the-Apostles Grand Duke Vladimir.

This is a significant event,” notes rector Father Vladimir Novikov. - The temple was closed in 1938: at first it housed workshops that stamped forks and spoons, then it housed the archives of the USSR Ministry of Machine Industry. Despite the fact that the building is registered as a historical and cultural monument, the temple was rebuilt into warehouses. Now there is a lot of work ahead to restore it.

Many Muscovites worked on subbotniks before the consecration.”

The main altar at the top was consecrated on Easter 1990. “Then the side altar of St. Nicholas was consecrated.”

“The two-story outbuilding at 9 Perekopskaya Street, given to the Youth Medical Center at Narcological Hospital No. 17, is being demanded by the community to be returned to the church for a Sunday school. The district council supported it, but the Moscow City Executive Committee is still silent.”

Prince Vladimir of Kyiv and Princess Anna gave birth to two boys, named them Gleb and Boris. They did not think that their sons would die as martyrdom due to the division of power. Their feat was in accepting the Will of God and love for their enemies, non-resistance. They became the first saints in Rus'. “You have heard that it was said: love your neighbor and hate your enemy. But I say to you: love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who use you and persecute you, so that you may be sons of your Father in heaven, for He commands His sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the just and the unjust" (Matt. 5:43-45). At first, the brothers were addressed as healers. Then the common people and especially the nobility asked for protection before the Lord. Since then, many temples have been built in their honor. Unfortunately, the relics have not survived to this day.

Construction of the temple took place in 1688-1704.

In 1688, the lower, warm temple in the name of the blessed Prince Vladimir was built and consecrated by boyar B. Prozorovsky (architect Yakov Bukhvostov).

In 1704, 16 years later, the upper, summer floor was built in the name of the noble princes Boris and Gleb.

The design of the building is simple and profound: the brothers’ feat was nurtured by their father, the holy Equal-to-the-Apostles Prince Vladimir.

In 1879, a bell tower was added and a clergy house was built. The bell tower has not survived to this day.

In 1938 it was closed, looted and abandoned.

In 1989, it was returned to the Russian Orthodox Church of the Moscow Patriarchate, was consecrated and began to operate.

Since 2005, the church has operated a Sunday school for children and adults.

The temple is in the Moscow Baroque style, two-story, three-domed. The building is quadrangular on a high basement, with two staircases.

In the 19th century, the state commission classified the temple as an architectural monument and mentioned it as a valuable monument of icon painting and interior decoration. This is confirmed by the fact that the model of the temple is exhibited in the Central Archaeological Cabinet at the Moscow Theological Academy in the Trinity-Sergius Lavra. A special shrine is the revered Tikhvin Icon of the Mother of God. There is a library at the temple.

Temple affiliation: Russian Orthodox Church Moscow Patriarchate, South-Western Vicariate, Moscow Diocese, St. Andrew's Deanery.
