Annunciation Cathedral, Pavlodar, Eastern Orthodox cathedral in Pavlodar, Kazakhstan.
The Annunciation Cathedral is an Orthodox church in Pavlodar, distinguished by its large dome topped with a gilded cross. Built from red brick, it stands prominently along the Irtysh River embankment and presents an imposing silhouette visible from various parts of the city.
The cathedral was built in 1993, shortly after Kazakhstan gained independence and religious freedom was restored. It marks the return of Orthodox religious practice to the region after decades of Soviet restrictions.
The cathedral serves as the spiritual heart of Pavlodar's Orthodox community and draws worshippers who gather here to observe their traditions. Its prominent location on the riverbank makes it a focal point where people come to reflect and connect with their faith.
The cathedral sits directly on the Irtysh River embankment and is easily reached on foot from the city center. Visitors should know that this is an active place of worship where modest dress is expected, especially during service times.
The cathedral's bells were cast in Moscow and specially transported to Kazakhstan for this site. Their ringing regularly echoes across the river and creates a distinctive sound that lingers throughout the city.
