Was built in 1555-1561 by orders of tsar Ivan the Terrible. Architectors Ivan Barma and Postnik Yakovlev. Official name is Cathedral of the Intercession of the Most Holy Theothokos on the Moat. Actually it's a complex of chapels, each dome for a separate chapel. St. Basyl was local saint whose grave is under one of the chapels. He was venerated so much that all the complex got an unofficial name "st. Basyl's"
