About this place
The church is situated on a steep hill and has a wonderful view of the surrounding area. To get to it people must first travel up Andreevsky Uzviz, a historic road that is a landmark in itself. The St. Andrew's Church is no longer used as a religious institute but now contains a museum within its walls.
This change was made in 1968 when it was decided that making it a museum would be more advantageous then keeping it as a church. Amazingly the St. Andrew's Church is one of the few buildings to have survived for so long without having been changed or reconstructed in anyway.
