History of the restoration of Christ the Savior Cathedral
Sputnik International
On August 19, 2000, the restored Cathedral of Christ the Savior in Moscow, the largest cathedral in Russia, was consecrated. It was built more than half a century after Russia’s 1812 victory over the French, and was in use for about the same length of time. Under the Soviets, this cathedral, Russia’s largest, was destroyed in just one day. In its place, they planned to build a Palace of Soviets. After the Second World War, they built an outdoor swimming pool on the site of the cathedral. Donations funded its rebuilding in the late 20th century.
