Yaroshevsky in 1854, and on February 2, 1859, Mikhail (South) and Archangel Gabriel (North) and Archangel Gabriel (Northern), in honor of the Heavenly Patron of the Templer, was consecrated.



Despite the fact that the current building of the temple of the age of one and a half, the temple in honor of the Nativity of the Blessed Virgin Mary existed on this place much earlier. Vladykino village is one of the most ancient villages near Moscow. The first owner of the village was the blessed prince Daniel Moscow, the son of St. Alexander Nevsky and a direct descendant of equivalent prince Vladimir and Prinjean Olga. In 1322, the village was granted to the behavior with a thousandth protassation Veljamin, who arrived in the Moscow Prince. From his behalf, the village and got its name - Veljaminovo. Velijaminov led their genus from Simon, the son of the Varangian Prince Afrikana, and the reasonlessness was almost equal to Rurikov. Simon on the death of his father was expelled and in 1027 he arrived at the service for the prince Yaroslav Mudrom. Having accepted Orthodoxy and becoming the spiritual chal of the Rev. Anthony of Kiev-Pechersk, he made a large donation to building the Pechersk Temple in honor of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary - he presented to the Reverend Anthony, a precious belt in 50 pounds of gold and a golden crown, her father's heritage. Vasily Vasilyevich Veljaminov, in 1371, with the name of Protasii, a leaving in the Epiphany monastery, donated a large number of land, and including Veljaminovo village.

After the fire in the Epiphany Monastery, in 1612 the village was laid, but then the monastery of Patriarch Filaret was redeemed and returned. In 1619, King Mikhail Fedorovich sorrows Veljaminovo to Dmitry Mikhailovichi Pozharskoy, but four years later, in 1623, the village is returned to the Epiphany Monastery again, and soon turns to the prince Ivan Ivanovich Shuisky. It was at the same time that the owner is built here about 1627. The new village church in honor of the Nativity of the Blessed Virgin Mary (instead of the dilapidated church in the name of the saint and the wonderworker Nicholas). After eleven years old on the spiritual testament of the owner, the village of Soul, Veljaminovo again returns to the Epiphany Monastery. In 1653, Veljaminovo village faced the Holiness Patriarch Nikonu, who reminisets him of the Epiphany Monastery into two other villages in the Moscow district. So Veljaminovo becomes near Moscow Vladyka - Patriarch and gets a new name - Vladykino.

At the very beginning of Altufyevsky highway, in the territory of the former village of Vladykino, there is an old temple, consecrated in honor of the Nativity of the Blessed Virgin Mary. He has already passed one and a half century. On November 10, 2013, the His Holiness Patriarch of Moscow Cyril committed divine liturgium in the temple, and then turned to parishioners with a sermon, in which he called the temple in Ladykin "one of the most wonderful in Moscow". He also reminded. that his story is "connected with three patriarchs - Nikon, Ioakim and Andrian." Vladykino is considered one of the most ancient villages near Moscow. The first owner of him was the son of Alexander Nevsky Prince Daniel Moscow. True, as it was called then, historians are unknown. After 20 years after the death of Prince, I had a certain prostasia Veliaminov, who served thousands of Ivan Kalita, and the future of Vladykino began to be called Veljaminov. In 1619, Tsar Mikhail Fedorovich Romanov presented the village of the Hero of the liberation of Moscow from Polyakov, Dmitry Mikhailovichi Pozharski, but soon it passed to Ivan Ivanovich Shuisky, who after the fall of Vasily IV Shuisky, in 1610, got into Polish captivity and was released only in 1620 year. Returning to Moscow, he headed the Moscow vessel order, and soon took Marfa Vladimirovna, Dolgorukov - Sister of the first spouse of King Mikhail Romanova Mary Dolgorukova. It was Ivan Ivanovich Shuisky in 1627 built in his estate the first wooden church, consecrated in honor of the Nativity of the Blessed Virgin Mary. And to be called Vladykin village Veljaminovo became about from 1653, and there was a good reason - these places were the victorious Patriarch Nikon. Patriarchal Ordering Books Delive to this day information that not only Nikon, but also the Patriarchs Joachim and Adrian stayed here and participated in the Divine Liturgy, held in the Church of the Nativity of the Blessed Virgin Mary. It is known that in the spring of 1690, the emperor Peter I prayed in the church together with the Patriarch of Adrian. Presumably, at the beginning of the 20th century, then another wooden temple made a "journey" - first the structure was transferred from the left bank of the River Lyharoboki to the right, and then returned back, where To this day there is his stone descendant. This, by the way, is already the second temple. The first built in 1770 Count Cyril Grigorievich Razumovsky, but he stood for less than a hundred years.

In 1854, the then owner of the estate of Gabriel Matveyevich Tolokonnikov decided the old church to disassemble and build a completely new building. As a result, the three-core temple made of red brick appeared. The architect A. F. Yaroshevsky became the author of the project. After about 40 years after the end of construction (all this time the temple was considered summer), inside the Dutch furnaces built inside, and the walls painted oil colors. Now from the village of Vladykino practically nothing left. But the subway station appeared next door with the same name. A year and a half ago, the temple was on a small hill, called the church slide and dominated the surrounding lance, but after the construction of a huge overpass over the signal passage, the temple was lost in his "shadow" and seems very modest today. In the church, very ancient and revered icons were preserved, because he belongs to the number of those few, which was not closed in soviet time. This is the image of St. Nicholas the Wonderworker with 16 stimples of life (the end of the XVI - the beginning of the 19th century), the icons of the Nativity of the Blessed Virgin Mother of God, the Smolensk and Kazan Icons of the Mother of God, dated the XVII century. Next to the temple used to be a cemetery, almost completely destroyed during the construction of an overpass (they wanted to demolish the temple itself, but the parishioners managed to defend it).

In 1936, Blessed Matron Anhenesevskaya was buried at this cemetery (in Mardaria's monastics), glorified by the blessing of the His Holiness Patriarch of Moscow and All Russia, Alexia on April 22, 1999. When the graves in the 1970s were broken, the dust of the Holy Matrona Anemnyasevskaya was transferred to Central cemetery Dolgoprudny city. Nowadays, the exact place of its burial remains unknown. According to priests and the parishioners of the christmas temple of the Blessed Virgin, next to whom the Blessed Matron found his last earthly relief, her presence here is especially noticeable.

The Virgin Mary-Christmas Temple is built by utilitarian and good, with care rather not about an external mumbling impression, but about the convenience of those who are connected with the church for many years, and parishioners. The initiator of this construction was the abbot of the temple about. Vasily Nechaev, a very zealous shepherd. He "infected" his idea of \u200b\u200bmerchant Gavril Matveyevich Tolokonnikova, who had a floating plant in Ladykin and who traded with church candles, and infected so much that Gavril Matveyevich was going to build something almost ambitious (however, whether the temple would be too noticeable, perhaps he would not live till today). But about. Vasily convinced the benefactor that the new temple should not be too big. First, the arrival of him was small, and, moreover, the priest was afraid that Gabril Matveyevich, being in old years old, could not live until the completion of a large-scale construction site. Several months went to coordinate the project with the consistory, the provincial construction commission and the compilation of the estimates. The assistant of the civil engineer of the House of Public Protection Chamber A. Yaroshevsky showed the Ktitor, and he confirmed that he was ready to provide the required "4792 rubles. 60 kopecks. Ser." From your capital, without touching church sums. The construction of the temple fell Gavrile Matveyevich more expensive than it was originally intended. G. M. Tolokonnikov wanted to build a more majestic temple, but suddenly limited his ambitions.

The church turned out to be a small, chamber and very cozy. The times of prince and targeted temples were held. Time has come bourgeois. And what time is this architecture. In the 1850s, when Vladykinsky Temple was built, a new direction was developed in the architecture, which, representing a mixture of multi-solid styles that replaced each other over the centuries, gave the architect and the customer to certain freedom of choice constructive features The future building and its decorative elements - according to taste and means. This style subsequently researchers were called eclecticism. The eclecticism could be defiant-luxurious and expensive, as, for example, the Neighborhood Palace of Beloselsky-Belozerski, built by A. I. Perektenshneider. And it could be very modest, unattached, like the church of the Nativity of the Blessed Virgin Mary in Ladykina, the construction of a completely unlucky architect A. I. Yaroshevsky. The architect had the right to navigate any epochs, use the elements of Byzantine, Gothic, Romanesque, Old Russian - if only the result was worth it.

Looking at the temple, we notice that the ferek is blocked by the roof "envelope" and crowned with five small masters on the deaf drums, when the architect appealed to the arsenal of the ancient Russian decorative techniques: here we are visible and kokoshniki at the base, and the "lightweight" arcatera-column belt, and And niwash, as if reminding us of the "older brothers" of these deaf drums - large light beams with windows. The refectory has a roof for two skates, and the presence of two adhesions in it is also marked with small tenderers, however, any decorations already deprived of any ornaments. In the corners of the Chetvechka, we see Kokoshnikov (as well as at the base of the drums), there are devoid of any functional load. They are, as it were, the visual continuation of the capitals of the dual semi-colonne - and this reception seems to us not devoid of some charm. That's what is done really modestly, this is a semi-head, a rather massive altar apse. In it, if you perceive it separately from the entire temple building, there is a reference to the factory architecture of its time - a reliable and gloomy "solo" of the red brick. The height of the church is 10 meters. The modest 15-meter bell tower constitutes one unit with a sequence of the temple, which is simultaneously its lower, reference chime. A four smaller sizer is put on it (with cut-off angles), a jar of a ring, crowned with a tent, whose height is equal to the height of the second tier. Over the tent - little iron. The church of the Nativity of the Virgin is small. With his construction, no one could assume that he would serve as a house of prayer for so many people. By festive days The church now does not accommodate praying.

The inner decoration of the temple is distinguished by neat modesty (and there was always so). His best decoration is an antique icon, whose value was clear already in the year before last. In the "historical note", preserved in the archives of the Temple (it was a priest Alexander Vozdvizhensky, who served here in 1866-1883), says: "Holy icons in the main iconostasis are almost all ancient. Especially this should be said about the icons of the first tier, namely: Icon of the Savior, Temple - Christmas Blessed Virgin, St. Nicholas, Kazan Icon of the Mother's Mother and Icon of the Mother of God Smolenskoye-Odigitria. All these icons are indicated in the description of the palace order for 1701. According to items, they are described in these icons. which, to the clutch, not survived. " It should also be noted that in Soviet times, when the surrounding temples were closed, many other images came to the Ladykin church. There are no ancient among them, but there is a good letter. Especially simple, even the poor, were the initial interiors of the temple - the floor of the lobby, the walls are painted with adhesive paint. Then the Dutch furnaces appeared, the concrete patterned floor (the last fashionable novelty of that time), oil painting on the walls. Heating, however, it worked not quite well. As a result - in the temple there were damp, the gilding of iconostasis and painting suffered. The first major repairs in the Vladykinsky church were held in 1896 in accordance with. John Protopopov. As for painting, she understood more than once, and now only small fragments remained from the initial, and even then average quality.

Modern view of the temple

The church in honor of the Nativity of the Blessed Virgin Mary in Ladykina is the spiritual center of a large densely populated area of \u200b\u200bOtradnaya. The current building of the temple this year marks 160 years, but the temple in honor of the Nativity of the Blessed Virgin Mary existed on this place much earlier, and there is a centuries-old grace.

The story of Vladykino himself is noteworthy - one of the most ancient villages near Moscow. All owners sat down, because of their origin and upbringing, were deeply religious people and constantly showed care about the church, which was in the village. The church was wooden, when the wooden building is windy, he was replaced by another.

With the princes of Yuri, Danilovich and Ivan Kalita village was granted to the victorious thousands of member Veljamin, who arrived in the Moscow Prince. From his behalf, the village received its name Veljaminovo.

Velijaminov led their genus from Simon, the son of the Varangian Prince Afrikana, and the reasonlessness was almost equal to Rurikov. Simon in 1027 came to the service for the prince Yaroslav Mudrom. Having accepted Orthodoxy and becoming the spiritual chal of the Rev. Anthony of Kiev-Pechersk, he made a large donation to building the Pechersk Temple in honor of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary - he presented to the Reverend Anthony, a precious belt in 50 pounds of gold and a golden crown, her father's heritage.
It is about him that it is said in the seventh Ikos of Akathist the Most Holy Theotokos in honor of the icon of the Kiev-Pechersk: "Rejoice, Yako Varyaga Simon in the abode wonderfully called for ESI; Having rejoiced by the size of your temple of yours to the belt to them the belt.

The descendant of Simon Protasii Veljaminov was a thousand Calita at the prince of Ivan Kalita and remained instead of managing things in Moscow, when the prince was leaning on affairs. Protassi was also a combine of the Epiphany Monastery. Later, his descendants were transferred to the village Veljaminovo monastery. In the village there was a wooden temple of Nicholas Wonderworker.
