This drawing of the Church of the Savior on Blood (or Spilled Blood) came from Olga (16 August 2017). It shows the church in wintertime.
The Church of the Savior on Spilled Blood (Russian: Церковь Спаса на Крови, Tserkovʹ Spasa na Krovi) is one of the main sights of St. Petersburg, Russia.
This church was built on the site where Emperor Alexander II was fatally wounded in March 1881.The church was built between 1883 and 1907.
It has been restored in recent times but the church is not consecrated and no religious services (except memorial service for the tsar) are held in this church.
Postcards I have received from 2013 to 2018 primarily through Postcrossing and Swap-bot although there are some postcards here that are from other sources.
