Christ the Saviour Cathedral

Christ the Saviour Cathedral is located on the north bank of the Moskva River to the southwest of the capital’s Kremlin

fortress. Christ the Saviour is the tallest Orthodox

cathedral in the world, standing at 103 metres above

the pavement. The main holy place can hold over 10,000 standing worshipers.

His Imperial Majesty

Emperor Alexander I signed a Manifesto ordering the construction of a

magnificent Cathedral in honour of Christ the Savior

in Moscow as a thanksgiving to God and to honour the

victorious Russian army.

It

was demolished in 1931 and after World War II at the place of the former

cathedral the world’s largest open-air swimming pool appeared, Following the

collapse of the Soviet Union in 1991, the newly-free Moscow Patriarchate

announced plans to rebuild the destroyed Cathedral on its pre-revolutionary

model and scale. The construction had been finished by 2000.

Every

year, the President and the Prime Minister of the Russian Federation attend

Easter midnight services in the cathedral.
