KIEV ST ANDREW'S CHURCH: PROTECTION AND REPAIRMENT OF THE MONUMENT IN THE NINETEENTH CENTURY – AT THE BEGINNING OF THE TWENTIETH CENTURY


St. Andrew's Church is an acknowledged masterpiece of architecture of Kyiv. In this article based on analysis of archival sources, we highlight the history of repairs in the church in the nineteenth century – at the beginning of the twentieth century. The article considers the reasons for such intense repairs and why did the building need them constantly. We studied the sources of funding for capital and current repairs of the church and the hill where it was built. The paper mentions the persons who played a special role in preservation of this monument. We investigated the role of the Kyiv Society in the Protection of ancient monuments and art in the protection of St. Andrew's Church.

Key words: Kiev St. Andrew's Church, the Kyiv Society for the Protection of ancient monuments and art, F.-B. Rastrelli, A. M. Muravjov, Fedir Titov.
