Krestyanskaya Zastava is a station on the Moscow Metro's Lyublinskaya Line and was opened on 28 December 1995 as part of the first stage of the Lyublinsky Radius.
Like its neighbour Rimskaya the station lacks an underplatform service areas and rests on a monolithic plate. At a depth of 47 metres the station is tri-vault wall-columned (i.e. the intercolumned space has been filled up to give extra strength). The architects Nikolay Shumakov and Nataliya Shurygina applied a Peasant Labour theme to the decoration which included a bright marble and aluminium layout of the station and decorative mosaics at the ends of the columns (artists N.Andropov and Yu.Shishkov). The floor is covered in checkered patter of black and grey granite and the lighting is hidden in the neiches of the vault.
The station has one vestibule which is inter-linked with subways under the square for which the station is named. In 1997 a transfer was opened between the vestibule and the Proletarskaya station of the Tagansko-Krasnopresnenskaya Line
