Lonely Planet review

This elaborate Russian Empire-style building dates from 1825. Formerly the John the Baptist Church, it now houses a small history museum, demonstrating how the city has spread from its starting point at the Kremlin. Exhibits are heavy on artefacts from the 13th and 14th centuries, especially household items and weapons and other representations of medieval Moscow.
