Description:

Kronshtadt, a town and a fortress, was from the beginning a multinational and multi-confessional settlement. Most of the churches and cemeteries, as well as the famous Kronshtadt necropolis, belonged to the Military and Naval Ministry. The St. Andrew Cathedral, built by Peter the First, was the administrative center of all churches on the Baltic shore of Russia. This book is a guide to the history of all churches that ever existed on this territory, their clergy, including Ioann Il'ich Sergiev (1829-1908) known as "the Saint of the common people", the senior priest of the Kronstadt St. Andrew Cathedral, who was canonized by the Russian Orthodox Church in 1990. Most of the information is published for the first time.
