St. Nicholas Cathedral, Byzantine Revival cathedral in Ukrainian Village, Chicago, United States.
The cathedral features thirteen domes rising 112 feet high, representing Christ and the twelve apostles, with a central dome dominating the structure.
The cathedral originated from a small Ukrainian labor group in 1905, leading to construction completion in 1915 at Oakley Boulevard and Rice Street.
The interior displays extensive mosaics and frescoes depicting religious scenes against blue and gold backgrounds, following Eastern Christian artistic traditions.
Services are conducted in Ukrainian at 8:00 AM and 9:30 AM on Sundays, with an English service following at 11:30 AM.
A nine-tier chandelier from Greece containing 480 lights encircles images of the twelve apostles under the main dome.
