The Three Holy Hierarchs church is a brick structure in Simferopol featuring characteristic Eastern Orthodox design elements and geometric patterns on its exterior. The building demonstrates balanced proportions and the architectural principles typical of Orthodox sacred spaces.
Architect Abratsum Karapetov designed the building, which later gained recognition as a regional cultural heritage site in Russia. This designation acknowledged its importance to the architectural legacy of the region.
