Church of the Epiphany, Eastern Orthodox cathedral in central Irkutsk, Russia.

The Cathedral combines Siberian Baroque and Neoclassical architecture with brick construction, featuring full-length images of saints across its decorative facade.

The first wooden church was built in 1693 near the Irkutsk Kremlin, burned in 1716, and was replaced by the current stone structure completed in 1746.

The cathedral houses religious services and displays traditional Russian Orthodox frescoes created after its return to the church in 1994.

Visitors can access the cathedral through the main entrance on Lenin Street, with regular services held daily and special ceremonies during Orthodox holidays.

The cathedral features a massive 12-ton bell in its classical style bell tower, which remains the largest bell in the entire Irkutsk region.
