The Church of St. Igor of Chernigov (Russian: Церковь Святого Игоря Черниговского) is a Russian Orthodox church in the Novo-Peredelkino District of the Western Administrative Okrug in Moscow. It is dedicated to St. Igor of Chernigov and Kiev. It is located near the summer residence of the Patriarch of Moscow and All Russia in Novo-Peredelkino. The idea of building a large church next to the Patriarch's residence belonged to Patriarch Alexy II. In 2005, he approved the project and approved the decision to consecrate a temple in honor of St. Grand Prince Igor of Chernigov and Kiev. Patriarch Alexy pointed out the place and blessed the start of construction of the temple, which is in the same year launched by a Closed Joint Stock Company 'Baltic Construction Company'. The building was designed by Alexandr Shipkov.
