Victory Square, 3b, Moscow 121170
Description:
The Church of George the Victorious is located on the territory of a huge memorial complex on Poklonnaya Hill, dedicated to the Great Patriotic War.
This temple is a place where every year, according to the tradition established since the opening of the temple, soldiers, cadets, pupils of military schools come to take the oath and perform thanksgiving prayers.
The temple was built in stylized forms of ancient Russian architecture, but has new features for domestic temple architecture - these are giant bronze bas-reliefs on the facades and in the interior.
The interior of the temple due to the use of large glazed surfaces of the walls is flooded with natural light.
