Saint Alexander Nevsky Church
Saint Alexander Nevsky Church, Orthodox church in Park Aloye pole, Chelyabinsk, Russia
Saint Alexander Nevsky Church is a red brick building featuring Russian Revival architecture with prominent cross domes set within a public park in Chelyabinsk. The structure serves as an Orthodox place of worship with active religious services.
Construction started in 1881 using funds raised by the community under architect A. Pomerantsev and the building was consecrated in 1916 after delays. During the Soviet period it became a concert venue and only returned to religious use in recent decades.
The church displays Orthodox religious traditions through its distinctive cross-domed exterior and active worship community that gathers there today. Visitors can observe how local believers integrate the sacred space into their spiritual practice.
The church is accessible by public transportation including trolleybuses that serve the park area. Visitors are welcome to explore the building during open hours while respecting ongoing worship activities.
From 1987 until the early 21st century the building served as a concert hall with a German organ containing thousands of pipes. This unusual transformation reveals how the building adapted to changing uses across different political periods.
