Abstract

The following article touches upon the problem of the genesis of one of the new types, which was formed in Moscow architecture at the end of the 17th century. The gate belfry of Vysokopetrovsky Monastery with the church of the Intercession was built during the period of 1690-1694 with the participation of Peter the Great and the Naryshkin family. This monument can rightfully be considered one of the most interesting examples in the architecture of Naryshkin style. It demonstrates the new idea – the gate church and the belfry are combined in one building, turning it into the main architectural dominant of the ensemble. This composition became very popular among the constructors of the Russian monasteries of the 18th – early 20th century.
