Transfiguration Cathedral, Belgorod, Orthodox cathedral in Belgorod, Russia

The Transfiguration Cathedral exhibits Neoclassical architecture with a turquoise exterior, five golden domes, and an attached bell tower at its structure.

Built in 1813 to commemorate Russia's victory over Napoleon, the cathedral served as a regional museum from 1973 until its return to the Orthodox Church in 1990.

The cathedral houses two sacred treasures: the relics of St Iosaf of Belgorod and the Miracle-Working Icon of St Nicholas the Warrior from the 16th century.

Located at 63 Ulitsa Preobrazhenskaya in Belgorod, the cathedral remains the central religious structure for the Diocese of Belgorod and Stary Oskol.

The building underwent several transformations, becoming the eparchial cathedral in 1923 after the Trinity Cathedral closure, followed by its own closure in 1962.
