Domodedovskaya

Domodedovskaya ( _ru. Домодедовская) is a station on the Zamoskvoretskaya Line of the Moscow Metro. It was completed in 1985 and is named for Domodedovo International Airport, which is located some 15 km to the south of the station along the Kashirkoye Highway. There is a regular shuttle bus service from the station to Domodevodo, as Domodedovskaya provides the fastest ground access to the airport.

Like many other stations built in the 1970s and 1980s, Domodedovskaya has a decorative theme related to the local surroundings. Appropriately enough, the theme here is "aviation." The pillars are faced with white marble with inlays of darker marble, and the walls are decorated with plaques depicting Soviet aircraft. The architects were N.A. Aleshina and N.K. Samoylova.
