Tretyakovskaya(Russian:Третьяко́вская.English:Tretyakov's) is a station complex ofMoscow Metrolocated in theZamoskvorechye District,Central Administrative Okrug.It offers across-platform interchangebetweenKaluzhsko-RizhskayaandKalininsko-Solntsevskayalines. It is named after the nearbyTretyakov Gallery.

UnlikeKitay-gorodwhich was purpose-built as across-platform interchangestation, Tretyakovskaya operated as a normal station before the connection with Kalininskaya Line in 1986. At that time a second hall was opened forming a cross-platform interchange. The two halls are joined by a passage located midway along their length and also by the shared vestibule, which opens onto Klimentovsky Lane.

The southern hall of Tretyakovskaya opened on 3 January 1971. Designed by V. Polikarpova and A. Marova, it has block pylons faced with white Koyelgamarbleand joined by a continuous marblecornice.Kaluzhsko-Rizhskaya Line trains stopped at both platforms of this hall until 1986, when the new northern hall opened. Currently the southern hall is served by northbound trains of both lines, terminating atMedvedkovoandNovokosino.[1]

The northern hall, served by southbound trains terminating at Tretyakovskaya andNovoyasenevskaya,was designed by R. Pogrebnoy and V. Filippov. It features curved white marble separated by translucent panels which conceal fluorescent light fixtures. The walls are faced with red marble and decorated with a series of plaques byAlexander Bourganovdepicting 16 great Russian painters, whose works the Tretyakov Gallery contains.
