Ascension Church, Rostov-on-Don, Eastern Orthodox cathedral in Rostov-on-Don, Russia.

The Ascension Church exhibits Byzantine Revival and Russian Revival architectural elements with a central dome, four smaller cupolas, and decorative brick walls.

Built between 1910 and 1913 on Brethren Cemetery grounds, the church experienced closure in 1929, reopening during German occupation in 1942 and officially in 1946.

The cathedral features side chapels dedicated to Saints Adrian and Natalia, along with St. John the Evangelist, serving Orthodox religious traditions.

Regular morning and evening liturgical services are conducted at the church, with additional ceremonies taking place during major Orthodox religious celebrations.

Local merchants Gerasimov, Myasnikov, and Safonov funded the construction using materials from a dismantled temporary church near Alexander Nevsky Cathedral.
