Alexander's Cathedral, Lutheran cathedral in Narva, Estonia.

The Romanesque Revival building displays rounded arches, decorative elements, and a restored bell tower located near the Krenholm Manufacturing area.

Constructed between 1881 and 1884 for Lutheran factory workers, the cathedral suffered damage to its bell tower during the events of 1944.

Visitors can explore the cathedral from May through September, Wednesday to Saturday 11:00-15:00 and Sunday 10:00-14:00, with limited winter hours.

The cathedral features an installation called Heaven above Narva, which creates the largest permanent projection surface in Eastern Europe at 520 square meters.
