Church of the Resurrection of Christ in Sokolniki
Church of the Resurrection of Christ in Sokolniki, Eastern Orthodox church in Sokolniki District, Russia
The Church of the Resurrection stands with nine domes, featuring a central golden cupola and eight black ones adorned with bright blue Abramtsevo tiles.
Built in 1909 under architect P. A. Tolstykh's design, the church remained operational through the Soviet period, preserving numerous religious artifacts from other closed temples.
The cathedral serves as a spiritual center hosting liturgies, religious ceremonies, and educational programs through its Sunday school for the local Orthodox community.
The church maintains regular services, offers confession sessions, and conducts baptisms, with additional religious education classes available for children and adults.
Unlike traditional Orthodox churches oriented east to west, this temple faces south toward Jerusalem, incorporating specific acoustic and visual architectural elements.
