The church was built in 1791-1802. at the expense of the merchant I. I. Savin. Taking into account dry, simplified classical forms The authorship of the buildings is attributed to the architect I.V. Egotov. It is known that at first a new refectory was built with two chapels - John the Warrior and the Iveron Icon Mother of God. Later, a bell tower rose above the western part of the refectory, and along the sides of the church along Bolshaya Ordynka to the alley on one side and to the Kireyevskys’ property on the other, a brick fence with two pairs of gates and metal bars stretched (later the same fence was installed along the alley). The main temple was consecrated in honor of the Iveron Icon of the Mother of God, and the left side chapel was re-consecrated in the name of the Great Martyr George.
In 1842, a new bell tower was built. It is placed directly above the entrance portal, narrowing the space of the central volume of the refectory. The lower tier of the bell tower is square, the upper tier is round, decorated with pilasters of the Corinthian order. The cylindrical bell tier is topped with a spire. The temple itself is a rotunda in the style of classicism. The windows have an original frame (thin columns grouped in pairs above the cornice, with large cones in the corners). The strongly prominent projections are decorated with porticoes. The temple was successively renovated during the 19th century without significant changes in its architectural appearance. The interior contains fragments of glue and oil wall paintings from the original period and the second half of the 19th century.
In 1930 the temple was closed. It housed a club, institutions, and a gallery of modern art. Worship services resumed in 1992.
The first mention of the existence of a temple “on Vspolye” (i.e., near a field), then dedicated to the martyr. St. George the Victorious, dates back to 1625. In 1673 the original wooden church replaced by a stone one - with a martyr's chapel. John the Warrior. In appearance, it was similar to the St. Nicholas Church in Pyzhi - five-domed, with a hipped bell tower. At the end of the 18th century, the temple was considered dilapidated and dismantled, and in its place the current one was built in 1798-1802 - according to the design of student M.F. Kazakova I.V. Egotova. During perestroika, the dedication of the main altar also changed (perhaps the desire of the temple builder, the merchant I.I. Savin, was respected). The former name was preserved in the dedication of one of the chapels located in the refectory. The second chapel remains in the name of John the Warrior. In the late 1920s - early 1930s, the temple was closed, the bells in the bell tower and the church dome were thrown down, and the upper tier of the belfry was dismantled. The interior decoration also could not be saved from destruction; only a few icons (including the temple Iveron image) were able to be transferred to the Church of St. Nicholas the Wonderworker in Kuznetsy. Subsequently, until the early 1990s, the church building was used as a club. Now it has been returned to believers and restored.

Story
The chapel near the walls of the Resurrection Gate, separating Red and Manezhnaya squares, was built in honor of miraculous icon Iveron Mother of God - a copy from the icon of the Iveron Mother of God Goalkeeper, kept in the monastery on Holy Mount Athos in Greece. This icon was brought to Russia in 1614 and was first located in the Valdai Iversky Monastery. In 1669 she was transported to Moscow. Until 1782, she remained in the St. Nicholas Greek Monastery, next to the Kremlin, and then, upon completion of the construction of the chapel, she took the place prepared for her.
In 1801, the dome of the chapel was crowned with the figure of an angel with a cross. After 1917, representatives of the new government removed all decorations and church utensils containing gold and silver from the chapel, and the building itself was transferred to the jurisdiction of the Renovationist Church. In 1929, it was closed, and in 1931, along with the Resurrection Gate, it was destroyed so as not to interfere with passage military equipment on Red Square during parades.
The icon of the Iveron Mother of God was transported to the Sokolniki Church of the Resurrection of Christ.
In November 1994, Patriarch Alexy II consecrated the foundation stone of the Iveron Chapel and the Resurrection Gate. In less than a year, they were restored by decision of the Moscow government according to the design of Oleg Zhurin.
And in October 1995, a new copy of the miraculous icon of Our Lady of the Goalkeeper kept there was sent to Moscow from the Iveron Monastery on Mount Athos.
On October 25, 1995, the chapel was reopened.
The dedication of this church in honor of one of the most famous icons of the Virgin Mary is not as ancient as it might seem. Initially, it had a different name, in honor of the saint, who became part of the coat of arms of Moscow.
The wooden church on this site was first mentioned in documents in 1625 with another dedication - in the name of St. George the Victorious. The addition “on Vspolye” denotes the ancient location of the temple near a field, on the outskirts of the city - the border of Moscow at that time ran along the trajectory of the Garden Ring. The wooden building was replaced in 1673 by a stone building, created at the expense of the merchant Semyon Potapov and receiving the chapel of John the Warrior. The building was a traditional Moscow temple of the late 17th century, crowned with a five-domed structure and a hipped bell tower. However, after more than a hundred years, the church fell into disrepair and was completely dismantled for new construction. The creator of the temple was local, captain I.I. Savinov, who lived opposite the church. Work continued from 1798 to 1802.
The new church building was supposedly built by the architect I.V. Egotov is a student who was starting his professional career at that time. Later, according to his designs, the church-tomb of the Golitsyn princes in the Donskoy Monastery, the Durasov estate in Lyublino, as well as an old building Armory Chamber in the Kremlin (the latter has not survived). The Iverskaya Church on Bolshaya Ordynka was built in the style of late classicism, in dry and laconic forms - without an abundance of decoration on the facades, but with a powerful dome, cut through by triple windows and crowning the main part of the temple. The small dome on the dome is also original: it is not the “onion” traditional for Orthodox architecture, but a round pedestal topped with a long thin cross, which makes it more similar to European churches. The refectory overlooks Bolshaya Ordynka, the entrance to it is marked by a four-column portico of the Ionic order with a pediment, above which is a bell tower with an elongated spire.
During construction new church Her name also changed: high altar was consecrated in honor of the Iveron Icon, and one of the chapels in the refectory became St. George’s. The second chapel remained Ioannovsky, as before. Subsequently, until the twentieth century, there were no significant reconstructions in the church. A little further away, in the churchyard, a two-story building of the parish almshouse has been preserved, designed for 15 women - mainly servants of local residents.
The church was closed for services in 1929–1930, its dome and the upper tier of the bell tower were dismantled. The interior decoration was destroyed, only a few icons were preserved - including the temple image of the Iveron Mother of God, transferred to the Church of St. Nicholas the Wonderworker in Kuznetsy. The room itself was divided into three floors and was used first as a club for the Second Automobile Repair Plant, then as a club for the Marat confectionery factory, and in 1989 it became a gallery of modern art. In 1994, services were resumed in the temple, the lost dome and bell tower were soon recreated, and the remaining paintings were cleaned from under a layer of paint and restored.
