Comment

Date of issue: 15 FEB 1994

The Intercession Church on the Nerli-River - a remarkable architectural monument of the Vladimir-Suzdal school. Built in 1165 near the town of Bogolyubovo where the River Nerli flows into the River Klyazma, it is noted for the exceptional harmony of its proportions, exquisite carved stonework and plastic treatment of walls.

Interesting fact

The Intercession Church on the Nerli-River, depicted on the 3 Roubles non-circulating coin from Russia (1994), is a notable example of a medieval Russian church built on a river. The church's unique location and design, with its foundation resting directly on the riverbed, has withstood harsh weather conditions and seasonal flooding for centuries. This remarkable architectural feat is a testament to the ingenuity and resilience of the people who built it.
