Parishioners, including many artists, held fairs where they sold their works and donated the proceeds for construction, Interfax-Religions reports.

Now the entrance groups and porch are being installed in the temple. A belfry is being built above the main entrance. Workers are installing electricity, installing floors, building stairs and a balcony for the choir.

Moscow artists expressed a desire to take part in decorating the temple after completing the interior decoration work. The construction of the temple will be fully completed by the end of the year, and then the territory will be landscaped.

In the 1930s, at this place, at the intersection of Verkhnyaya Maslovka Street and Petrovsko-Razumovskaya Alley, the “Moscow Montmartre” - the Town of Artists - was located. This is the only complex of buildings in the world specifically built for the work and life of craftsmen visual arts. Such masters as Arkady Plastov, Yuri Pimenov, Igor Grabar, Sergei Gerasimov and many others lived and worked in Gorodok. Therefore, it was decided to dedicate the temple to St. Andrei Rublev.

Artists still live and work here today. The artists' town is often confused with the artists' village on Sokol, however, unlike the one-story "village", the multi-story buildings of the "Moscow Montmartre" are one of the most striking examples of avant-garde architecture of that period. Each house is a monument to cultural history. On many buildings you can find memorial plaques dedicated to outstanding Russian artists.

In the future, the issue of building a large stone temple in this area will be considered.

History of the parish

In January 2002, Patriarch of Moscow and All Rus' Alexy II blessed an initiative group of famous Russian artists - Valentin Sidorov, Andrei Gorsky, Vadim Shelov, Viktor Ivanov, Geliy Korzhev and others - for the construction of the Church of St. Andrei Rublev in the Town of Artists. The idea of ​​building a temple on Verkhnyaya Maslovka was supported by residents of the area and leading masters of fine art. In accordance with the artistic design, the temple should lead the architectural ensemble of the Town.

In 2004, a community was registered in the name of St. Andrey Rublev. In 2005, by decree of Patriarch Alexy II, priest Vladimir Leonov was appointed rector of the temple. From this time on, on the last Sunday of every month, prayer services are held for St. Andrei Rublev.

The community has been seeking permission to build for more than ten years. Finally, by order of the Committee on Architecture and Urban Planning of the City of Moscow dated October 29, 2012, the Urban Development Plan was approved land plot for the construction of a temple at st. Verkhnyaya Maslovka, ow. 2.

On the patronal feast day, July 17, 2016, priest Vladimir Leonov celebrated the first Divine Liturgy in the church under construction.

Program-200. Reference

Construction program Orthodox churches(“Program 200”) has been deployed in all administrative districts of the capital, except for the Central. Its goal is to provide densely populated areas of the city with temples within walking distance.

The program is being implemented within the framework of an agreement between the Moscow Patriarchate and the Moscow Government.

The program is implemented entirely with donations from citizens and organizations. Created to raise funds charitable foundation support for the construction of churches in the city of Moscow, the co-chairs of the Board of Trustees of which are the Mayor of Moscow Sergei Sobyanin and the Patriarch of Moscow and All Rus' Kirill.

On behalf of the mayor of Moscow, the program is supervised by the mayor's adviser, adviser on construction to the Patriarch of Moscow and All Rus', deputy of the State Duma of the Federal Assembly of the Russian Federation Vladimir Resin - he is the chairman of the fund's working group.

Each future complex is a church itself for 300 or 500 people and a clergy house, where a Sunday school, library, social and missionary departments and a youth work department will be located. Each temple will have ramps for the disabled and a room for mothers and children.

The original program was divided into several queues. The first stage included 61 sites selected by the Moscow Committee for Architecture, administrations and prefectures. The development of architectural solutions for temple complexes was carried out by three Moscow design institutes: State Unitary Enterprise MNIITEP, Mosproekt-2 and Mosproekt-3. The technical customer was the Office for Reconstruction and Development of Unique Objects (URiRUO) of the Department of Urban Development Policy of the City of Moscow.

In August 2010, the Moscow government issued a decree “On the construction of modular Orthodox churches on the territory of the city of Moscow,” according to which plots for construction were provided to the Church for free use.

On October 20, 2010, the Moscow government issued a decree on the selection of sites for the construction of temple complexes. As a result, Moscow authorities have already allocated about 150 plots for construction.

To date, according to information posted on the website of the Foundation for Support of the Construction of Moscow Temples, 29 churches have been built in the capital, construction and installation work has been completed on nine, and another 39 churches are under construction.

Will “Program-200” be renamed?

In September 2015, the chairman of the board of the fund “Support for the construction of churches in the city of Moscow”, Archbishop Mark of Yegoryevsk (now Metropolitan of Ryazan and Kasimovsky), in a commentary for TASS, stated that the fund had decided to change the official name of “Program-200”.

“The decision to move away from the number 200 was made for a number of reasons. Firstly, the number 200 is controversial: some say that it is very little, others, on the contrary, that it is a lot. Secondly, the number itself is soulless. The program should have a symbolic name - the idea and the goal should come first,” said Archbishop Mark.

And even earlier, in April 2015, the issue of renaming was raised by Patriarch Kirill at a regular meeting of the board of trustees of the Foundation for Support and Construction of Moscow Temples.

“The number of temple complexes that are supposed to be built is increasing by one and a half times. And, accordingly, the name of our program “200 temples” becomes very arbitrary. Maybe we should invite Muscovites to think about what our program could be called without using any numbers,” the patriarch suggested, addressing the mayor of the capital Sergei Sobyanin.

A few months later, in August 2015, the curator of “Program-200” Vladimir Resin announced that due to plans for the construction of new churches on the territory of New Moscow, the number of objects will increase to 380.

Archbishop Mark noted in September 2015 that for the sake of broader discussion, it was decided to hold a vote to select a new name for the program on the Active Citizen portal. However, to date such a vote has not yet been organized.

The temple is being built according to the “200 temples” program.

In January 2002, Patriarch of Moscow and All Rus' Alexy II blessed an initiative group of famous Russian artists - Valentin Sidorov, Andrei Gorsky, Vadim Shelov, Viktor Ivanov, Geliy Korzhev and others - for the construction of the Church of St. Andrei Rublev in the Town of Artists. The idea of ​​building a temple on Verkhnyaya Maslovka was supported by residents of the area and leading masters of fine art. In accordance with the artistic design, the temple should lead the architectural ensemble of the Town.

The place for the church in the name of the greatest Russian icon painter and artist was not chosen by chance. At the intersection of the Moscow streets Verkhnyaya Maslovka and Petrovsko-Razumovskaya Alley in the 30s of the twentieth century, the “Moscow Montmartre” appeared - the Town of Artists, the only complex of buildings in the world specially built for the work and life of masters of fine art. Each of them is a monument to the history of culture and architecture. On these houses you can find memorial plaques dedicated to outstanding Russian artists Grabar, Gerasimov, Plastov, Pimenov, Chuikov, Baburin, Kibrik. Painters, sculptors, and artists still live and work here today. The town is often confused with the “artists’ village” on Sokol, however, unlike the one-story “village,” the multi-story blocks of “Moscow Montmartre” are one of the most striking examples of socialist avant-garde architecture.

In 2004, with the blessing of the Patriarch, a community was registered in the name of St. Andrey Rublev. In 2005, by Decree His Holiness Patriarch Alexy II of Moscow and All Rus' appointed priest Vladimir Leonov as rector of the temple. Since then, on the last Sunday of every month, prayer services are held for St. Andrei Rublev. Previously, parishioners gathered in the studio of the artist Grigory Tsyplakov-Taezhny, now prayers are served on the site of the future temple or in the Church of the Annunciation Holy Mother of God in Petrovsky Park.

The community has been seeking permission to build for more than 10 years. Finally, by order of the Committee on Architecture and Urban Planning of the city of Moscow dated October 29, 2012, the urban planning plan of the land plot for the construction of the temple at the address was approved. Verkhnyaya Maslovka, vl.2.

On November 2, 2013, at the construction site of the church of St. Deputy of the State Duma of the Federal Assembly of the Russian Federation V. I. Resin, who oversees the “200 temples” program, visited Andrei Rublev. Together with Vladimir Resin, the site of the future temple was visited by the Chairman of the Board of the Foundation “Support for the Construction of Moscow Temples” Bishop Tikhon of Podolsk, Dean of the All Saints District Archpriest Sergius Dikiy, the author of the temple project Olga Barannikova, representatives of the Foundation “Support for the Construction of Moscow Churches”, as well as employees prefectures of the Northern Administrative District and other officials. A decision was announced to start construction as soon as possible.

On February 22, 2016, the consecration of the foundation stone installed in the foundation of the church of St. Andrei Rublev under construction on Verkhnyaya Maslovka took place.

On September 3, 2016, in the church of St. Andrei Rublev on Verkhnyaya Maslovka, the rite of erecting the cross on the dome was performed. This significant event occurred less than six months after the consecration of the foundation stone at the construction site. Bishop Paramon, Bishop of Bronnitsky, vicar of the Patriarch of Moscow and All Rus', served a solemn prayer service and consecrated the cross.

October 30, 2016 became another significant date in the history of the Church of St. Andrei Rublev on Verkhnyaya Maslovka. On this day, the Divine Liturgy was no longer held in the basement, but in the holy church itself.

We really ask for help! Thanks to parishioners, donors and Muscovites from other districts of the capital, we were able to erect a unique cathedral, which amazes with its beauty even from a distance. As soon as the walls are plastered and the decoration of all the rooms of the upper and lower temple is completed, the icon painters will be able to begin painting the vaults of the cathedral. With God's help and with the assistance of the townspeople who donate to us for construction, we will be able to complete the work in 2018.

Andrey Rublev in Ramenki

Andrey Rublev in Ramenki truly unique. Rublev was canonized as a saint not so long ago (1988), but it is unique not for this, but for the fact that it was created in honor of the artist. His work is one of the pinnacles of not only Russian but also world culture. Rublev is a recognized master of the Moscow school of icon painting, and in Soviet times he brought many cultural people to the church.

The idea of ​​building a temple has been brewing since 1994. The projects were offered as standard ones until Mikhail Filippov got involved. He proposed his vision of the future temple, and his project was approved almost immediately.

Started in 2008 construction works, in February 2010 the monastery was consecrated, but improvement work continued for several more years.

Unlike many new churches, this one did not incorporate the entire decorative arsenal of ancient Russian architecture, but focused on early Moscow architecture. In style, it resembles the Cathedral of the Spaso-Andronikov Monastery, where Andrei Rublev is buried. This is a large two-tier building with a semicircular volume. The covered staircases and light perspective arcades surrounding it with changes in tiers resemble the silhouette of either ancient city, or a monastery. The temple - strict and elegant - demonstrates a delicate balance between elements of medieval and classical architecture.

In 1996, construction began on the site of a small chapel Church-Chapel of the Intercession of the Blessed Virgin Mary in Ramenki. It was built according to the design of architects A. N. Obolensky and D. S. Sokolov. In 2000, it was moved from the construction site (to make way for the construction of the Andrei Rublev Temple) and consecrated on Christmas Eve 2001.

Today at Church of Andrei Rublev in Ramenki There is a Sunday school, a charity group, a Temperance Society, and a parish youth organization.
