Transfiguration Cathedral, Orthodox cathedral in Teremki district, Kyiv, Ukraine.
Transfiguration Cathedral is an Orthodox church in Teremki district featuring multiple golden domes and Ukrainian Baroque architectural details integrated into its contemporary structure. The building contains a spacious interior designed for religious services and community gatherings.
The cathedral was constructed in the 1990s following Ukraine's independence and represented a revival of Orthodox church building after decades of Soviet restrictions. The project was part of a broader movement to restore religious architecture across the city.
The cathedral serves as a gathering place for the local community in Teremki and is frequented by worshippers throughout the week. Its distinctive silhouette with multiple domes makes it a visual landmark that residents pass by regularly.
The cathedral is accessible for visits during daylight hours and Sunday services occur multiple times throughout the day. Visitors should wear modest clothing and familiarize themselves with Orthodox customs if planning to attend religious ceremonies.
The cathedral regularly hosts concerts featuring classical music and performances by the Metropolitan Choir, making it a valued venue beyond its religious function. These events attract visitors interested in the artistic quality of the performances rather than attending services.
