Tallinn Alexander Nevsky Cathedral
This richly decorated historicist mixed-style Orthodox church was completed in 1900 when Estonia was part of the Russian Empire. The church dates back to the Russification policy in the 19th century and was erected directly opposite Toompea Castle to demonstrate Russian supremacy. The congregation of the Estonian Orthodox Church of the Moscow Patriarchate operates in the church.
The mosaic panels above the entrances give the church historical value. The church towers have an ensemble of 11 bells, among which is the largest bell in Tallinn, weighing 15 tons.
