He worked primarily in Moscow, devising the first general plan of that city between 1734 and 1739. His best-known original building could be the main church of Svensky Monastery in Bryansk, although its attribution is disputed. He was also responsible for the belfry of Saint Clement"s Church in Moscow.
Empress Elizabeth sent him to Kiev to realize Rastrelli"s design of Saint Andrew Church.
Michurin"s last project was the bell-tower of the Troitse-Sergiyeva Lavra, finished by his disciple Dmitry Ukhtomsky.
