Church of St. Nicetas (Храм Никиты Мученика на Швивой горке) is one of the oldest parish churches in Moscow. It is known to have existed as early as 1476. Standing on Shvivova Gorka, the eastern slope of Taganka Hill, this small single-dome church once commanded a famous view of Zamoskvorechye (now blocked by the Kotelnicheskaya Embankment Building).
