Saint Nicholas Serbian Orthodox Cathedral, Serbian Orthodox cathedral in Hamilton, Canada.
Saint Nicholas Serbian Orthodox Cathedral is a church building with Serbo-Byzantine architecture located at the corner of Barton Street East and Division Street in Hamilton. The interior contains an ornate icon screen with forty painted icons and extensive interior frescoes depicting religious scenes.
The first Serbian Orthodox parish in Eastern Canada was established in 1913. The current cathedral building was completed in 1974 to serve the community's growing spiritual needs.
The cathedral serves as a spiritual center for the local Serbian community, where traditional celebrations and religious ceremonies take place throughout the year. People gather here to maintain their connection to Orthodox faith and participate in important community occasions.
The cathedral is located at the intersection of Barton Street East and Division Street with street parking available nearby. The main entrance features a mosaic portal, and visitors can attend services or explore the interior when the building is open.
The interior frescoes were painted between 2000 and 2001 following traditional Orthodox artistic methods. This relatively recent artwork demonstrates how religious artistic traditions continue to develop within the community.
