The Church of the Sign of the Blessed Virgin Mary in the village of Dubrovitsy (Podolsk urban district). It is one of the most unusual in the Moscow region—its architecture truly stands out!

The church is a striking example of the so-called Golitsyn Baroque style. What makes it special is:
- A centric composition. The plan features an equal-armed cross with rounded "petals."
- A 12-petal plan and a central pillar crowned with an openwork gilded metal crown. This was highly unusual for Orthodox churches of the time.
- White stone decoration. The church was built of white stone from the local Syanov quarries—it is flexible enough for fine carving. The facades are richly decorated, featuring sculptural images (saints, angels, evangelists with their symbols) and rich floral ornamentation (grape vines, shells). The patterns also include a phoenix—another motif unusual for Russian architecture.
- An open gallery (gulbische) around the church, also featuring ornate carvings.
- Inside, there are also numerous stucco sculptures (relief molding) depicting biblical scenes.

On the site of the stone church, there once stood a wooden church dedicated to the Prophet Elijah (1662). It was moved to the neighboring village of Lemeshevo.

Construction of the stone Church of the Sign began in 1690. It is believed that Prince Boris Alekseevich Golitsyn (Peter the Great's tutor) initiated the construction as a sign of reconciliation with the tsar after his temporary disgrace.

The work lasted for about nine years (until approximately 1699), but the consecration took place later, in February 1704. It is believed that the delay was due to the prince waiting to invite Peter I himself to the consecration. It is also believed that Patriarch Adrian initially refused to consecrate the church because of what he considered its overly obvious imitation of the Catholic Baroque style. After Adrian's death, Metropolitan Stefan (Yavorsky) became the locum tenens of the patriarchal throne, and it was he who performed the ceremony.
