Алексеевская церковь, Orthodox church in central district, Riga, Latvia.
The church features a traditional Russian baroque design with distinct gothic windows, columns, and an altar arch incorporated from an earlier monastery.
Built between 1751 and 1761 under Governor Prince Vladimir Dolgoruky, the church stood on the former site of Mary Magdalene Monastery.
The interior contained burial monuments of notable figures, including Governor Prince Vladimir Dolgoruky and Riga Governor Prince Nikita Repnin.
The building operated as an Orthodox church until 1917, after which it transformed into a Catholic church dedicated to Mary Magdalene.
The church entrance column displays the coat of arms of Prince Vladimir Dolgoruky, marking his contribution to the building's construction.
