Russian Church, Qazvin

The church was built in 1905 for the Russians engineers hired for road constructions in Qazvin.

Its architectural planning is based upon an irregular polygon made out of red bricks.

The first floor of the bell tower of the chapel gives great views of the surrounding field.

The paved churchyard leads to many tombs, one of which belongs to a Russian pilot who was killed when his plane went down during the war.
