Cathedral of the Resurrection

The Cathedral of the Resurrection spans 34.8 meters in length and reaches a height of 40.5 meters, featuring red brick construction and granite staircases.

The cathedral's foundation stone was placed in 1890 during a ceremony attended by Czar Alexander III and Empress Maria Feodorovna of Russia.

The interior houses a three-part carved iconostasis by Afanasjev and contains religious paintings created by artist Michail Dickarev in the early 1900s.

The cathedral maintains regular Orthodox services throughout the year and accommodates up to 2,000 people in its main worship space.

This Orthodox cathedral remained the single intact structure in Narva following the extensive bombing campaigns of World War II in 1944.
