Saborna crkva, Orthodox cathedral in Niš, Serbia.
Saborna crkva is an Orthodox cathedral in Niš that combines traditional Serbian Orthodox architectural elements with a single nave layout and a prominent bell tower. The building was designed with classical liturgical proportions to serve the needs of religious worship.
The cathedral was completed in 1883 by architect Andrey Damyanov and replaced an earlier structure dedicated to the Holy Trinity. This construction marked a renewal of the city's religious center during a period of urban development.
The interior displays religious artworks including frescoes and iconography typical of Serbian Orthodox traditions and biblical narratives. These visual elements shape how people experience the spiritual space when they visit.
The building is open to visitors on weekdays and holds regular services according to the Serbian Orthodox calendar. Visitors should respect its active use as a place of worship and plan visits accordingly.
The structure gained protected cultural monument status in 1979, establishing its recognition as a significant architectural work of Serbian heritage. This designation shields the building from alterations and underscores its role as a historical record of the city.
