Cathedral of the Nativity in Suzdal, 13th-century Orthodox Cathedral in Suzdal, Russia
The Nativity Cathedral features five blue and gold domes, with its lower section constructed from white stone and the upper portion built from brick.
Prince Yuri Vsevolodovich ordered the construction of the current cathedral in 1222, replacing an earlier structure from the time of Vladimir Monomakh.
The interior walls display religious frescoes from three different periods: the 13th, 15th, and 17th centuries, representing Russian Orthodox artistic traditions.
The cathedral operates as both an active Orthodox church with regular services and a museum exhibition space under joint management since 1992.
Two damascene doors from the 13th century exhibit detailed gold-on-copper designs depicting scenes from both Old and New Testaments.
