Resurrection of Christ Orthodox Cathedral

The Resurrection of Christ Orthodox Cathedral incorporates traditional Byzantine architecture with domed ceilings, curved arches, and detailed mosaic decorations throughout its interior.

The cathedral's construction in 2012 marked the revival of religious expression in Albania following decades of suppression during the communist period.

The cathedral complex houses conference facilities, museum spaces, and archives that serve as centers for Orthodox Christian education and community gatherings.

At 46 meters tall, the cathedral features a bell tower with four clocks, two underground levels, and a main hall that accommodates 500 to 850 people.

The cathedral combines modern architectural elements with Byzantine traditions, including a central dome adorned with a mosaic of Christ Pantocrator.
