The Annunciation Cathedral is one of the finest examples of Russian religious architecture, influenced by the Italian Renaissance. It served as the family church of the tsars, hence its more intimate character. The iconostasis is said to have been decorated by two of the greatest Slavic icon painters: Theophanes the Greek and Andrei Rublev. The door of the southern facade was added by Ivan the Terrible who, excommunicated, could only attend services behind this gate.

Belle cathédrale, à visiter dans l'enceinte du Kremlin (donc payante). L'intérieur est joli, entre icones et peintures bien conservées.

belle cathédrale
c'était l'église privée des stars de Russie. Elle fait partie du complexe du Kremlin. Vous y trouverez un dépliant en français vous expliquant les spécificités de l'édifice.
