Transfiguration Cathedral, Eastern Orthodox cathedral in Tambov, Russia.

The Transfiguration Cathedral features five domes atop a brick structure, with a recently reconstructed bell tower reaching 42.5 meters in height.

Construction of the stone cathedral began in 1694 under Bishop Pitirim's supervision, taking 90 years to complete due to financial constraints.

The cathedral contains the tombs of Saint Pitirim and several local bishops, along with religious paintings created by Pitirim himself.

Located at Sobornaya Square 4, the cathedral maintains regular Orthodox services and welcomes visitors interested in religious or architectural observation.

The cathedral's bell tower, demolished in 1931 by the Bolsheviks, remained absent for eight decades before being reconstructed to its original specifications.
