Although it's known to everyone as St. Basil's, this legendary building is officially called "The Cathedral of theIntercession of the Virgin by the Moat". The popular alternative refers to Basil the Blessed, a Muscovite 'holy fool' who was buried on the site (in the Trinity Cathedral that once stood here) a few years before the present building was erected. The Cathedral was ordered by Ivan the Terrible to mark the 1552 capture of Kazan from Mongol forces. It was completed in 1560. That's pretty much all the genuine history that's known about this celebrated landmark. There,however, scores of legends. Nothing is known about the builders, Barma and Postnik Yakovlev, except their names and the dubious legend that Ivan had them blinded so that they could not create anything to compare. Historians unanimously state that this is nothing but urban folklore.
Architectural specialists are to this day unable to agree about the
governing idea behind the structure. Either the creators were paying
homage to the churches of Jerusalem, or, by building eight churches
around a central ninth, they were representing the medieval symbol of
the eight-pointed star. The original concept of the Cathedral of the
Intercession has been hidden from us beneath layers of stylistic
additions and new churches added to the main building. In fact, when
built, the Cathedral was all white to match the white-stone Kremlin,
and the onion domes were gold rather than multi-colored and
patterned as they are today.
In the 17 th century a hip-roofed bell tower was added, the gallery and
staircases were covered with vaulted roofing, and the helmeted domes
were replaced with decorated ones. In 1860 during rebuilding, the
Cathedral was painted with a more complex and integrated design, and
has remained unchanged since.
For a time in the Soviet Union, there was talk of demolishing St. Basil's
- mainly because it hindered Stalin's plans for massed parades on Red
Square. It was only saved thanks to the courage of the architect Pyotr
Baranovsky. When ordered to prepare the building for demolition, he
refused categorically, and sent the Kremlin an extremely blunt
telegram. The Cathedral remained standing, and Baranovsky's
conservation efforts earned him five years in prison.
The Cathedral is now a museum. During restoration work in the
seventies a wooden spiral staircase was discovered within one of the
walls. Visitors now take this route into the central church, with its
extraordinary, soaring tented roof and a fine 16th Century iconostasis.
You can also walk along the narrow, winding gallery, covered in
beautiful patterned paintwork.
One service a year is held in the Cathedral, on the Day of Intercession
in October.
