The ancient village of Veshalovka in the Lipetsk region, which belonged to the landlords of the Tatischevs from the 18th century, is practically the same today as any other rural settlement in the central part of Russia. The only exception is the presence of an architectural monument of federal significance, which is an atypical pseudo-Gothic church of the Znamensky church.
According to some information, the Church of the Sign of the Mother of God was designed by the then famous architect Vasily Bazhenov and was built by masters for almost thirty years - from 1768 to 1794 years. Funds for the construction of such an outstanding in its size and architecture of the structure was allocated by Guards captain YA Tatishchev, whose father was the favorite orderly of Peter the Great. The church was consecrated in 1794, the adjacent village was also named Znamensky. Later, together with the village of Veshelovka, it was transformed into a village with the present name.
Znamenska church in Veshalovka is also interesting because it does not have direct analogs even in the constructions of Bazhenov (assuming that its author is he). The architecture of the temple combines the principles of classicism, the motives of European Gothic architecture and even some forms of ancient Russian architecture.
Revolutionary events, of course, touched the temple in Veshalovka, and since 1917 it has not been used. Restoration work here began only in 1987 and continues until now under the supervision of the State Directorate for the Protection of the Cultural Heritage of the Lipetsk Region.
