Catedral Ortodoxa Rusa de la Resurreccion, Eastern Orthodox cathedral in San Telmo, Buenos Aires, Argentina
The Russian Orthodox Cathedral features five blue onion domes with golden stars and Orthodox crosses, positioned against the San Telmo neighborhood skyline.
Construction of the cathedral began in 1898 with funds from Tsar Alexander III, becoming the first Orthodox church established in South America by 1901.
The cathedral serves Russian Orthodox services with religious artifacts sent by Tsar Nicholas II and Tsarina Alexandra in 65 crates from Russia.
The main entrance to the temple is through the left door of the facade, leading to the first floor where the primary worship space exists.
The iconostasis contains three doors decorated with Ukrainian majolica tiles, with the central holy door restricted to clergy members during liturgical services.
