Saint Nikolai Cathedral, Yerevan, Eastern Orthodox cathedral in Kentron District, Yerevan, Armenia.
The red and black tufa stone cathedral combined architectural elements of traditional Russian Orthodox churches with local Armenian building methods.
The cathedral, constructed in the late 19th century by architects Vasili Mirzoyan and N. Kitkin, stood until its demolition in 1931.
The cathedral functioned as a military church, serving Russian soldiers stationed in Yerevan and the surrounding Russian Orthodox community.
The former location of the cathedral is now part of Shahumyan Square, situated at coordinates 40°10'34"N and 44°30'34"E.
Historical photographs from 1919 show military formations marching beside the cathedral, documenting its role in early 20th century Yerevan.
