Patriarch Kirill launched the reconstruction of the blown up Trinity Cathedral in Suzdal
The most important event for the cultural heritage of the Golden Ring took place today in Suzdal
The most important event for the cultural heritage of the Golden Ring took place today in Suzdal. On the site of the temple destroyed in the Soviet years, a new cathedral was laid.
His Holiness Patriarch Kirill of Moscow and All Russia personally headed the rite of consecration of the laying stone in the foundation of the future Holy Trinity Cathedral of the Monastery. This event became a symbol of the revival of the lost architecture - a five-domed temple with a tent bell tower, which adorned the city from the end of the XVII century until its barbaric destruction in 1934.
The prayer was attended by the first persons of the region, led by Governor Alexander Avdeev.
Help: The unique stone cathedral had two thrones (Troitsky and Uspensky). Its history is inextricably linked with St. Euphrosyne of Suzdal. Thanks to the pre-revolutionary photographs of Sergei Prokudin-Gorsky, the restorers have an exact basis for restoring the historical appearance of the building.
