Таврический дворец
St. John's Church (; ) is a Protestant church in St. Petersburg, Russia. The church is situated at the address "54 ulitsa Dekabristov", close to the Mariinsky Theater. Founded in 1859 to serve the Estonian community living in the city at that time, it is considered Estonia's symbol of independence. It was the place where in 1888 Jakob Hurt made the call to resist the Tsarist government's russification policy and on March 26, 1917, 40,000 Estonians began their march to Tauride Palace demanding national autonomy.
