    Church of St Dmitry on the Blood

    Posted by barenib 20 August 2009

    This is a typical ostentatiously domed Russian church, but one rich with history. It was here that the 10-year-old Dmitry, son of Ivan the Terrible had his throat cut, thus giving the church its colourful name. It has some beautiful frescoes inside and lies at the heart of a small Kremlin complex on the banks of the Volga river.
