Constructed in 1817-18, in a late Classicist style (architect L. Rusca), replacing the Holy Resurrection Church built in 1711 at the palace of Tsarina Natalya Alexeevna. The building is crowned with a low cupola. The centre of the main facade is emphasized by a magnificent six-columned portico, crowned with a low cupola on a low dome drum; the interior is designed as a rotunda decorated with 24 contiguous Ionian columns, made of artificial white marble. The iconostasis was made by engraver Y. A. Dunaev; the icons were painted by artists V. K. Shebuev and S. S. Kurlyandtsev. The revered icon of Our Lady the Joy of All Who Sorrow of the late 17th century in a precious frame was painted in the workshop of F. A. Verkhovtsev according to the drawing of F. G. Solntsev, and came from the former church. A second tier of windows was added in 1841. In 1932, the Our Lady’s Church of Joy for All Who Sorrow was closed down, and the building was used to house the department of the All-Russian Society for Historic and Cultural Monuments. In 1993, church services were resumed.<br/><br/>References: Георгиевский Н. Г. Историко-статистическое описание Санктпетербургской Скорбященской церкви, что за Литейным двором. СПб., 1866; Антонов В.
