I really liked it: just like that, the local rector, looking at me, my grandmother and the baby who were looking into the church, offered to come tomorrow at 10 am and baptize the child. Without any “be sure to pass an interview with your godparents” and other bureaucracy. With the words that he loves the baptism of babies, “they don’t even have sins, where does that come from?”

(Translated by Google) According to archival documents, the parish church of the All-Merciful Savior - the Origin of the Honest Trees of the Life-Giving Cross of the Lord in the village of Kuskovo was first mentioned in 1510. Its ensemble also included a bell tower and a church wing. As for the land, at the Temple there were only 33 tithes "these lands are in the undisputed possession of the clergy." Of these, "about seven acres" were leased for the Sheremetev estate. All the owners of the estate regularly paid the rug (rent). (Original) Согласно архивным документам приходской храм Всемилостивого Спаса – Происхождения Честных Древ Животворящего Креста Господня в селе Кусково впервые упоминается в 1510 году. В его ансамбль также входили колокольня и церковный флигель. Что касается земли, то при Храме было всего 33 десятин «земли сеи находятся в бесспорном владении причта». Из них, «около семи десятин» даны в аренду под усадьбу Шереметевых. Все владельцы усадьбы исправно платили ругу (арендную плату).

The Church of the All-Merciful Savior is the home church of the Kuskovo estate. Located next to the palace, in the central part of Kuskovo, it creates an unforgettable view both from the side of the pond and in the ensemble of the estate.

The summer stone single-altar Church of the All-Merciful Savior (another name is the Temple of the Origin of the Honest Trees of the Life-Giving Cross of the Lord) in the Sheremetev estate was built in 1737 - 1739. on the site of a dilapidated wooden church, mention of which is in the chronicles of the 17th century, and it was presumably built in the 20s of the 16th century. The temple is the oldest building in the Kuskovo estate. Kuskovo was first mentioned in the chronicles of the 16th century and already as the possession of the Sheremetevs, whose family was one of the most noble in Russia. Since its construction, the church has not been rebuilt and has survived to this day in its original form. It is considered one of the rare architectural monuments of Moscow in the style of “Anenn Baroque” (Baroque of the era of Anna Ioannovna). In 1919, the estate received the status of a State Museum. The church building was converted into museum outbuildings. The Church of the All-Merciful Savior was restored and re-consecrated in 1991. In November 2010, it received the status of a protected object - an architectural monument of the 18th century.

In general, nothing unusual, it looks normal, but it looks good in one picture next to the palace.

The church is located next to the bell tower near the palace in Kuskovo Park. Open to the public.

It is part of the same architectural complex as the Kuskovo Estate Museum.

(Translated by Google) This is a unique monument made in the Baroque style. In 1737, the church turned from wooden to stone. Since then, it has not been rebuilt and has existed in that form for more than two hundred years. And even the invasion of the French army did not become a strong shock for these places. There was destruction, but they were quickly eliminated. The October Revolution took place and auxiliary rooms were equipped in the building of the church at the operating museum. And only in 1991 the church was restored and re-consecrated. (Original) Это уникальный памятник, выполненный в стиле барокко. В 1737 году церковь превратилась из деревянной в каменную. С тех времен она не перестраивалась и так и существует в том виде уже более двух сотен лет. И даже нашествие французской армии не стало сильным потрясением для здешних мест. Были разрушения, но их быстро устранили. Прошла Октябрьская революция и в здании церкви оборудовали подсобные помещения при действующем музее. И только в 1991 году церковь была восстановлена и вновь освящена.
