Alexander Nevsky Church, Eastern Orthodox church in Daugavpils, Latvia.

The Alexander Nevsky Church features nine towers of varying shapes, with diamond-shaped tin plates covering its four-sided roof design.

The church construction, completed in 1897, was funded by merchant M. Chukasov from St. Petersburg and supervised by war engineer Rashevski.

The wooden log building maintains Eastern Orthodox traditions through its architectural elements, including onion-shaped crosses atop the cupolas.

Located near the Garnizon cemetery in the Mezciems area of Daugavpils, the church continues to serve the local Orthodox community.

The church structure stands without exterior board cladding, displaying the natural wooden logs used in its construction.
