Legends and myths of the Savior on Spilled Blood! The guides of the temple love to tell the belief that one of the icons of the temple carries information about the past and future of our country. It is believed that if you look at the icon for a long time and carefully, you can find in it the dates of turning points in Russian history. Namely - the years of the October beginning of the Great Patriotic War, the roar of the war, the death of Stalin and some other figures, most likely related to the future. But they show through indistinctly. According to another legend, when the temple was closed and the bells were removed from it, the parishioners of the temple, fearing that the unique shrine - the crosses of the temple would also be melted down, secretly removed them at night and hid them. They plunged them to the bottom of the Griboyedov Canal, that is, not far from the temple. When the restoration work was coming to an end, a man was found who told the restorers where to look for the crosses and pointed out the place. With the help of divers, unique handsome crosses were found and, after restoration, took their place on the domes of the Savior.
