Alexander Nevsky Cathedral, Orthodox cathedral in Katedralna district, Łódź, Poland

The Alexander Nevsky Cathedral features red brick walls, five golden onion domes, and intricate decorative elements on its octagonal structure and facades.

Local industrialists funded the construction of this Russian-Byzantine cathedral in 1884, providing a religious center for the Orthodox community in industrial Łódź.

The cathedral contains an oak iconostasis donated by Izrael Poznański, representing the connection between religious architecture and industrial patronage in 19th century Łódź.

Religious services occur every Sunday at 10:00, while individual visits are permitted before and during services or through advance reservations for groups.

The cathedral's location near the Łódź Fabryczna railway station made it a central religious landmark for Orthodox travelers and merchants in the 19th century.
