It's full name is the Temple of the Life-Giving Trinity. The church appeared here in Catherine's time, under the first owner of the castle, count Grigory Orlov. It was rebuilt several times under each new owner of the building, the last time - under Nicholas I. In 1917, the church was closed, under the Soviets there was a library of the Higher School of Marine Engineers, and than - the Electronstandart Institute.
