Saint Alexander Nevsky Church, Pskov, Russian Orthodox military church in Pskov, Russia

Saint Alexander Nevsky Church is a Russian Orthodox military church in Pskov's Zavelichye district, built in 1907–1908 to a standard design by engineer F. M. Verzhbitsky from 1901. The Russian Revival building has white walls, ornamental details and a bell tower with a dome recreated during restoration. It served the 96th Omsk Regiment.

Built in 1907–1908 for the 96th Omsk Regiment to a standard military-church design drawn up by engineer F. M. Verzhbitsky in 1901, the church was consecrated on 4 October 1908 by Bishop Arseny (Stadnitsky) of Pskov and Porkhov. Services ceased in 1918; after the Great Patriotic War the building housed a garrison officers' house and a military medical depot. Worship resumed on 13 March 1992, the cross was consecrated on 7 February 1995 and the restored church on 12 June 1995.

The church is the regimental temple of the 96th Omsk Regiment, consecrated on 4 October 1908 by Bishop Arseny (Stadnitsky) of Pskov and Porkhov. Its rector is Archpriest Oleg Teor, who heads the diocesan department for cooperation with the armed forces and law enforcement. On 2 December 2008 new bells cast in Kamensk in the Urals were consecrated for the centenary; the largest weigh 700 kg and over a tonne.

The church stands in the Zavelichye district on the left bank of the Velikaya, across the river from the Pskov Kremlin. Services resumed inside the building on 13 March 1992, and the restored church was consecrated on 12 June 1995. The bell tower and the dome with its cupola were rebuilt during the restoration works.

The church was built to a standard military-church design drawn up in 1901 by engineer F. M. Verzhbitsky, and served the 96th Omsk Regiment. Its bells were recast in 2008 for the centenary: the largest weighs over a tonne, the next 700 kilograms, cast in Kamensk in the Urals and brought to Pskov on 21 November 2008.
