Rublev Trinity icon removed from Lavra iconostasis after climate-control failure

The Rublev Trinity icon was removed from the iconostasis at Trinity Lavra of St. Sergius after its climate-control chamber malfunctioned, per RBC sources. The icon, transferred to the Russian Orthodox Church in 2023, is now at risk of damage without proper environmental controls. This highlights infrastructure fragility in cultural heritage preservation, with implications for Russia's cultural patrimony.
