Cathedral of the Intercession, Orthodox temple in Shakhty, Russia

The Cathedral of the Intercession stands with its reconstructed 33-meter bell tower and two aisles in the center of Shakhty, displaying eclectic Russian architecture.

The Soviet government nationalized the cathedral in 1922, leading to its closure in 1923 and subsequent removal of bells, dome, and bell tower in 1933.

The cathedral functions as the main Orthodox religious center in Shakhty, operating under the Diocese of Shakhty and Millerovo since its restoration.

The reconstruction of the building started in 1998 using photographs from 1912 as references, since no original construction plans remained available.

During the Soviet period, from 1923 until the late 1990s, this religious building operated as a repair facility for the local tram depot.

Location: Shakhty

Inception: 1902

Architectural style: Eclectic architecture in Russia
