Resurrection Cathedral, Starocherkasskaya
Resurrection Cathedral, Starocherkasskaya, Ukrainian Baroque cathedral in Starocherkasskaya, Russia.
The Resurrection Cathedral stands at 49 meters tall with five towers and features decorative elements including cornice curbs and onion-shaped domes topped with gilded crosses.
Construction of the stone cathedral began in 1706 after two wooden predecessors were destroyed by fire, marking it as the first stone church in the Lower Don region.
The cathedral contains a five-tiered gilded iconostasis with 149 icons from the mid-eighteenth century, representing Russian Orthodox artistic traditions of that period.
The cathedral remains open for religious services and tourist visits, positioned near the Maidan square where historical cannons and war trophies are displayed.
Near the entrance, massive chains reportedly used to restrain Stepan Razin before his execution remain preserved alongside the ashes of Ataman Kirill Yakovlev.
