St. Nicholas Cathedral, Eastern Orthodox cathedral in Nizhyn, Ukraine.
St. Nicholas Cathedral rises 55 meters high and features five domes, displaying traditional architectural elements in its brick construction and symmetrical design.
The cathedral, completed between 1654 and 1658, emerged during a period of religious expansion and architectural development in the Nizhyn region.
The structure serves as the main Eastern Orthodox church of the Nizhyn eparchy, where religious ceremonies and community gatherings take place throughout the year.
Special loggias near the main entrance provide dedicated spaces for regimental starshyna, maintaining the original functional design of the building.
