Reviews and Ratings
Write a reviewСобор Александра Невского считается главной православной русской церковью. Он был построен на взносы частных лиц. Храм возведен в византийском стиле, а внутри украшен изысканными фресками, иконами и мозаикой. Собор относится к излюбленным религиозным строениям русских эмигрантов. Кстати, здесь отпевали знаменитого художника Кандинского, И.Бунина, А.Тарковского. А еще в храме венчались Пикассо и танцовщица Ольга Хохлова.
