About the project (provided by the applicant)
During the restoration of the Federal Cultural Heritage Site “Church of the Intercession in Fili, 1693–1694” (“Church of the Intercession of the Holy Virgin in Fili”), a comprehensive restoration of the brick-and-white-stone décor of all tiers of the church was carried out.
The historic lead waterproofing of the galleries and open staircases was fully restored, while their white-stone coverings were restored and partially recreated. The domes and crosses were gilded, and the white-stone pitched slab coverings, as well as window and door fillings, were restored.
Around the church, a comprehensive drainage and groundwater diversion system into specially constructed wells was implemented, along with a “breathing” blind area.
