St. Hyacinth’s Church: from School to Gallery

Architectural Monuments • Temples and places of worship • Cathedrals and churches • Other places

St. Hyacinth’s Church was built in the 16th century as a school under the Franciscan monastery named after St. Hyacinth. In the XVII century, when Vyborg development master plan appeared, the school was rebuilt: it turned into a local noble assembly and became known as the Knight’s House. In the next century, Vyborg was annexed to the Russian Empire, and in 1799 Emperor Paul I ordered to return the building to the Catholic Church. A chapel of St. Hyacinth was originally arranged in it, and in the mid-XIX century it became a parish church named after the same saint.

During World War I, St. Hyacinth’s Church was turned into a parish building. In Soviet times, services here lasted for a while until the church became a warehouse and then an art school. Nowadays the building has been given to the Vyborg Art Gallery and is waiting for restoration. Although all the church annexes have long been destroyed and the appearance of this structure is quite secular, the townspeople still call it St. Hyacinth’s Church.
