Restoration work continues in the Smolny Monastery courtyard. Two churches, St. Zachariah and Elizabeth and St. Alexander Nevsky, were completely restored in 2021. Currently, the main focus is on St. Catherine's Church, where ancient decorations have been found inside. The work is scheduled to be completed by 2027.
At the same time, the building with the tower is being repaired. The exterior has already been restored, and now the interior is being worked on. It was discovered that the building does not have its own outer wall; it simply adjoins the fence. This historical feature is planned to be preserved.
Based on materials from the Committee for State Control, Use, and Protection of Historical and Cultural Monuments of St. Petersburg.
