俄国东正教大教堂建于1912年,是由沙皇尼古拉二世(Tsar Nicholas II)所建,为17世纪早期的建筑风格,教堂由红砖、浅灰色大理石及色彩斑斓的陶砖铺砌而成,6个洋葱型圆顶是其建筑的一大特色。它的设计灵感源于莫斯科的教堂风格,内部装饰极为丰富,装饰以诸多圣像、壁画、雕刻的细木护壁板以及由压花和雕镂金属制成的圣像屏。
The cathedral was opened in 1912, thanks to the generosity of Russia's Tsar Nicholas II. From 1931 until 15 December 2011 (after a longstanding legal dispute over ownership was resolved),[1] the parish that occupied the cathedral was part of the Paris-based Patriarchal Exarchate for Orthodox Parishes of Russian Tradition in Western Europe under the jurisdiction of the Church of Constantinople.
