Cathedral of the Nativity of the Blessed Virgin Mary (Rostov-on-Don)[edit]

Cathedral of the Nativity of the Blessed Virgin Mary
The Rostov Cathedral of the Nativity of the Blessed Virgin Mary was built in just six years and consecrated on the Nativity of the Blessed Virgin Mary in 1860.

After the revolutionary events of 1917, terrible years of godlessness and persecution of the church began. The attack on the Rostov Cathedral began back in the 20s. Then the cathedral, together with the bell tower, was surrounded by a brick fence, and the marble porches were dismantled; the only entrance to the cathedral was allowed from the western side. In 1929, workers removed the last icon in the cathedral.

From 1932 to 1942, the cathedral was completely closed, the crosses were removed from the domes, the iconostasis and all the interior decoration were lost. A grain warehouse was built inside the temple, and a menagerie was placed in the courtyard. Eyewitnesses said that the cage with the lioness in labor was placed in the temple so that she would not frighten the people with her roar, but she began to roar even more and rushed around the cage until she was taken out into the courtyard.

Rostov-on-Don, temples: Cathedral

We recommend starting your acquaintance with the city’s religious buildings with the magnificent Cathedral of the Nativity of the Blessed Virgin Mary. It was built according to the design of the famous architect, author of the design of the Cathedral of Christ the Savior in Moscow - K. A. Ton. All tourists visiting Rostov-on-Don are brought to this majestic structure. The city's temples have their own characteristics, but the main cathedral is impressive with its size and magnificent interior decoration.

The Russian-Byzantine silhouette of the temple is the architectural symbol of the city. The temple has five domes, and its overall layout is shaped like a cross. Of particular interest in the interior is the painting of pylons, vaults and walls, which was done by the artist K. Volkov.

The main iconostasis, made in the form of a chapel, topped with a dome and a cross, is also magnificent. The same magnificent altar partitions can be seen in the Preobrazhensky and Peter and Paul chapels. During its history, the temple had to go through a lot. For example, in the thirties, a menagerie was located on the territory of the beautiful cathedral. Today, the Rostov Cathedral is undergoing a large-scale reconstruction, but does not stop working.

Holy Kazan Church (Rostov-on-Don)[edit]

Kazan Church
In 1996, a small trailer with an Orthodox cross appeared on a vacant lot on Komarova Boulevard in the Northern residential area of Rostov-on-Don, and services began. Little by little, the news about the temple in honor of the Kazan Icon of the Mother of God spread throughout the area, and people flocked to it from all sides. The small temporary church was filled to capacity with parishioners and soon could no longer accommodate everyone.

Eight long years passed before the construction of the temple got off the ground. Everything changed with the appointment of priest Dimitry Sobolevsky as rector of the Holy Kazan Church in June 2004.

On September 11, 2004, on the great feast of the Beheading of the Prophet, Forerunner and Baptist of the Lord John, Bishop Panteleimon laid the foundation stone for the temple. And then it was decided to revive the ancient Russian tradition of building a temple for the whole world. Brick by brick. Just like they did in ancient times. Only then did everyone actually bring a stone, but now all it takes is a small sum indicating your name or the names of your loved ones. Thus, the “Insert your brick into the future temple” campaign was announced, which was covered by almost all local media.

Temple of the Kazan Icon of the Mother of God in Rostov-on-Don

Description

In 1996, a small trailer with an Orthodox cross appeared on a vacant lot on Komarova Boulevard in the Northern residential area of Rostov-on-Don, and services began. At first, the residents of the area looked at him with surprise and even disbelief. Few people took this trailer seriously. People, out of habit, continued to go to other churches in the city. Somehow I couldn’t believe that an Orthodox church could appear in our residential area, although the need for its construction was acutely felt.

The doubts were justified. The vacant lot where the trailer was placed did not turn over a quarter of a century into a thriving park, which it was supposed to be according to the project. All attempts to plant trees on this grassy plot of land, on which pets from nearby private houses grazed, failed. It was in vain that city tree planting campaigns were held here. Almost all the trees had dried up, and when it rained there was impassable mud.

But little by little the news about the temple in honor of the Kazan Icon of the Mother of God spread throughout the area, and people flocked to it from all sides in streams. The small temporary church was filled to capacity with parishioners and soon could no longer accommodate everyone.

This always happens. This is the law. Temples are never empty. They are immediately filled with people. After all, this is a place of special Divine presence, where the sky visibly bows to the earth, and where we actually meet God, the Mother of God, Angels and saints.

However, eight long years passed before the construction of the temple got off the ground. There were so many reasons for standing in one place for such a long time that by the early 2000s, parishioners had completely lost faith in the possibility of building a temple on this site. The most pessimistic mood reigned; everyone said that, most likely, there would never be a real house of God here.

Everything changed with the appointment of priest Dimitry Sobolevsky as rector of the Holy Kazan Church in June 2004. For him, the appointment to this parish was a complete surprise. Later, the priest repeatedly admitted that he could not even think that he would have to serve here, much less build a temple, although he himself was born and raised in Severny. All these years, just like the residents of the area, he looked with hope and sadness at the trailer standing forlornly in a vacant lot, and kept waiting for when construction would begin? It turned out that he was supposed to do this.

Father Dimitri remembers his first impressions to the smallest detail. He was met by a small, cramped and stuffy trailer, in which people were losing consciousness from the heat. What was it like to serve as a priest in full vestments? At the altar +43! But that was not the only depressing thing. For a number of reasons, the parish had difficult relations with the district and city administration. He also inherited two bags of documentation with various approvals, letters and replies. This involuntarily gave up. But at the same time, the power of the blessing of the ruling bishop, Archbishop of Rostov and Novocherkassk Panteleimon, was felt, who inspired the priest to this work, remarking: “You are a priest, you have a cross on you, you must fulfill obedience...”

It was necessary to quickly unravel a complex tangle of intricate relationships with the authorities and potential benefactors. It was necessary to go through the entire chain of approvals and obtain all the necessary papers to begin construction.

At that moment, neither officials nor representatives of business structures rushed to help the priest. None of them believed in the success of the business. Everyone took a wait-and-see attitude and advised... to start construction, and only then they will definitely get involved. But the Lord not only allows trials, but also sends help through people. She also came to the rector of the Holy Kazan Church in the person of the head of the North Caucasus Railway, and now the vice-president of the Russian Railways campaign, Vladimir Borisovich Vorobyov. He was the first to lend a helping hand to the parish. He delivered foundation blocks, and thereby helped to stake out a disputed territory, which was being encroached upon by those who wanted to build a shopping and entertainment complex here.

There were so many opponents to the construction of a temple on this site that the situation more than once hung by a thread. At the very beginning, it was discussed that a very small wooden church-chapel could be built here. Then, when consent was given for the construction of a more spacious stone church, officials made a decision prohibiting the parish from having an adjacent territory and, accordingly, from building ancillary premises. In one of the high offices then the following phrase was heard: “No Sunday schools and refectories! Let everything be arranged in the basements.”

That’s why it was so important not to lose this place in the center of the Northern residential area, and V.B.’s help was so timely. Vorobyov.

The second person who radically changed the situation was the head of the Don DRSU, Pyotr Yegorovich Kulik. He surprised the rector by coming up one day after the service and simply saying: “Fr. Dimitri, we need to start construction. Let's build a temple." And he gave me the equipment. On September 11, 2004, on the great feast of the Beheading of the Prophet, Forerunner and Baptist of the Lord John, Bishop Panteleimon laid the foundation stone for the temple. It was a real miracle, because less than three months had passed since the priest was appointed to this parish. And the parish at that time was already eight years old.

Another miracle was that the following summer a park was laid out here, and the territory of the former wasteland was instantly transformed. The trees planted this time began to grow. And this was also a sign from above. For more than 30 years, this land waited for a church to appear on it, and with the start of its construction it immediately blossomed. The temple always sanctifies the area on which it is erected...

But building the house of God is not an easy task. And then it was decided to revive the ancient Russian tradition of building a temple for the whole world. Brick by brick. Just like they did in ancient times. Only then did everyone actually bring a stone, but now all it takes is a small sum indicating your name or the names of your loved ones. Thus, the “Insert your brick into the future temple” campaign was announced, which was covered by almost all local media.

A personalized brick is not only a donation for construction, but also a special (intensified) prayer for the person whose name is indicated when donating. This is tantamount to eternal remembrance in the holy temple, since at each liturgy prayers are offered “for the creators of this holy temple,” “for those who bear fruit and do good.” That is, about people who make donations to the temple of God, and also, through their deeds, contribute to the establishment of the Orthodox Church.

This action shook Rostov. Not only residents of the Northern residential area, but also our entire city responded to the call for help in construction. People even came from nearby villages to contribute. More than 15 thousand residents of the Don became owners of “personalized” bricks. Thanks to these donations, it was possible to purchase 0.5 million bricks, which became a good help in the construction of the temple. Sisters from the Sisterhood of St. Blazh. Ksenia of St. Petersburg worked in three shifts, writing the names of benefactors on each brick...

But after the ground floor was erected, difficulties arose again. Construction has stalled. There was no luck with construction workers; there was no money to continue the work. And then the rector of the temple dared to resort to the help of the Queen of Heaven Herself, ordering an icon of the Intercession of the Most Holy Theotokos. There were benefactors who happily agreed to participate in this good cause and took on all the costs of painting the icon.

Father proposed to paint not the traditional icon of the Intercession, but to depict the site of the future temple and the St. Kazan Church. So, on the icon in the lower right corner there appeared the Temernik River and a snow-white beautiful temple, which Our Lady seemed to take under her radiant omophorion. And, indeed, as soon as this icon was painted and consecrated, all the difficulties were miraculously resolved and construction continued. It became clear to everyone that the Heavenly Intercessor had taken our temple under her protection and was spreading her Cover over it.

It is also symbolic that the first service, an all-night vigil, in the Holy Kazan Church took place on the Feast of the Intercession of the Most Holy Theotokos, October 13, 2007. It is clear that this is not a simple “coincidence”. Now no one has any doubts about the fact that the temple is patronized by the Mother of God Herself.

There were many signs during the construction of the temple. In the first year of the celebration of National Unity Day on November 4, 2005, which coincides with the feast of the Kazan Icon of the Mother of God, two religious processions took place in Rostov. One came from the Iversky Monastery, the other from the Church of All Saints Who Shone Shining in the Russian Land. The religious processions met at the Holy Kazan Church on the central alley of Friendship Park. A large tent was erected on the alley, and inside it was the Kazan Icon of the Mother of God (everything simply would not have fit in a small trailer).

The ruling bishop, Archbishop of Rostov and Novocherkassk Panteleimon and almost the entire clergy of Rostov arrived. About five thousand people gathered in the park, including many trustees (by this time the attitude towards the temple under construction had changed, benefactors appeared). A prayer service was served. And suddenly, in the November sky directly above the tent, a rainbow of an unusual shape shone! People were filled with excitement and trepidation. It became clear to everyone that November 4 was not chosen by chance as the day of unity, reconciliation and harmony. It was after fervent prayer before the Kazan Icon of the Mother of God that the troops of Minin and Pozharsky went to attack Kitay-Gorod. Trust in the Mother of God was the invincible force that irrevocably established harmony in the Russian camp.

The Kazan icon for the temple was painted in a special year. In 2004, the 425th anniversary of the discovery of the miraculous image in the city of Kazan was celebrated and at the same time a sad date was celebrated - the 100th anniversary when this icon was lost. On the margins of the icon are depicted saints from all corners of our once vast country: in addition to St. Demetrius of Rostov and the blessed elder Pavel of Taganrog, there is St. Michael, Metropolitan of Kiev, St. Princess Sophia of Slutsk, prayer book for the land of Belarus, St. good Queen Tamara, patroness of Georgia, St. Gregory, educator of Armenia. Even the Far East is represented in the person of St. Nicholas of Japan.

The Holy Kazan Church was built in record time, in 3.5 years. This is a unique case in the Rostov diocese. But the improvement work has not yet been completed. The temple is being painted. There are many plans ahead for the further use of the surrounding area.

Old Intercession Church (Rostov-on-Don)[edit]

Staro-Pokrovsky Church
The temple in the name of the Intercession of the Blessed Virgin Mary was moved from the fortress of St. Anna. However, due to the dilapidation of the temple and the constant threat of collapse, it was decided to build a new building.

On September 29, 1784, the temple, in the construction of which thick pine wood was used, received its first parishioners. Despite its novelty, the temple, now called Pokrovsky, was not very large, since it was intended only for the military class that inhabited the fortress of St. Demetrius of Rostov. Until 1869, the church did not have a parish and during this period experienced many severe trials.

Old Intercession Church

If you visit Rostov-on-Don, the city's churches will undoubtedly amaze you with the variety of architecture. In the very center of Rostov, on Bolshaya Sadovaya Street, there is Pokrovsky Square and the beautiful Old Intercession Church. This is a new cathedral, built in 2005. It is located on the site of a church lost during Soviet times.

The Intercession Church impresses not only with its magnificent appearance, but also with its exquisite interior decoration. The height of the cathedral is thirty meters, its shining gilded dome fits perfectly with the snow-white walls and seven columns. Mosaics decorate the entrance to the temple, and handmade carvings decorate the entrance door. The interior of the temple and the iconostasis are made of white marble.

The old Church of the Intercession, located on this site, was visited by Emperor Alexander I and the great Russian commander Alexander Suvorov.

Temple of the Icon of the Mother of God “Healer” (Rostov-on-Don)[edit]

The parish of the Russian Orthodox Church on Voenveda was founded in 1996 - at the height of the first Chechen campaign. At that time, the district military clinical hospital received dozens of killed servicemen and many wounded every day. Then the head of the hospital decided to open a chapel on the territory of the medical institution for the funeral of the dead and something like a temple where wounded soldiers could pray: “a plaster for the body, but a shepherd for the soul”...

At approximately the same alarming time for all of Russia, the administration of the Oktyabrsky district allocated a plot of land opposite the military veterinary market for the construction of a temple.

The management of the North Caucasus Railway donated a carriage, which was converted into a church, and on August 9, 1997, the first Liturgy was served.

Church of the Ascension (Rostov-on-Don)[edit]

On December 19, 1868, the Rostov Duma decided to build a chapel in memory of the deliverance from danger of Emperor Alexander.

On December 22, 1871, the koplitsa on Middle Avenue was renamed the Alexander Nevsky Church.

In 1872, the Holy Ascension parish was formed at the fraternal cemetery.

1875-1878 construction of the Alexander Nevsky Church according to the design of engineer Sergei Zagoskin.

Cathedral of the Nativity of the Blessed Virgin Mary

The main Orthodox church of the city in honor of the Nativity of the Blessed Virgin Mary was erected according to the design of the talented architect K.A. Tones.

The construction of the white-stone four-pillar church was completed in the second half of the 19th century. The temple is crowned with five golden domes, and at some distance from the cathedral there is a multi-tiered bell tower.

Temple of St. Seraphim of Sarov (Rostov-on-Don)[edit]

The Orthodox residents of the village of Gnilovskaya were among the first in Russia in 1904 to begin building a temple in the name of St. Seraphim of Sarov, who had a huge beneficial influence on the Russian people. Within a year, they managed to raise funds sufficient to draw up the necessary design for the building of the future church. By the end of 1905, the experienced Rostov architect Kozlov completed the order. The clergy and the Board of Trustees saw a detailed plan of a small elegant single-altar church in the style of the Moscow school of the mid-17th century. The beauty of ancient Russian architecture was felt in the harmony of all the elements of the church, and in the amazing proportionality of the seven gilded domes and domes topped with crosses, and in the harmonious lightness of the three-tiered belfry, one with the temple, and in the beauty of the patterned brickwork... Everything pleased the eye with its splendor.

Named after John of Kronstadt

The history of the Church of Righteous St. John of Kronstadt begins at the end of the 20th century. The foundation stone for the building on People's Militia Square was consecrated in September 1999, and the main construction work was completed in 2009.

The architecture of the temple is similar to the neoclassical architecture of the northern capital of Russia. The bell tower is crowned with an elongated spire, the church itself is single-domed.

Sretensky Church (Rostov-on-Don)[edit]

The first mention of the Sretensky Church dates back to 1778 - the next year after the founding of the village of Aleksandrovskaya (1777), when the Cossacks built a wooden temple in the name of the Presentation of the Lord.

In 1800, instead of a dilapidated wooden bell tower, a stone one was added. The temple itself, due to its dilapidation, was rebuilt, placed on a stone foundation and consecrated on September 29, 1800.

By the beginning of the 20th century, the temple building had become very dilapidated, and its parishioners began collecting funds for the construction of a new temple. In 1905, a petition was submitted for permission to build a temple according to a design made by the architect G. I. Vasiliev.

Temple of the Presentation of the Lord

Residents of the city and guests visiting Rostov-on-Don treat ancient religious buildings with special trepidation. Temples of architectural and historical value are located in almost all areas of the city.

On the Don they say: “A Cossack without faith is not a Cossack.” In the former village of Aleksandrovskaya (now a district of the city of Aleksandrovka) there is a magnificent temple, the first mention of which dates back to 1778. Surprisingly, the temple building has been preserved in its original form. Only the bell tower was destroyed during the war.

Church of St. Demetrius, Metropolitan of Rostov (Rostov-on-Don)[edit]

In the middle of the 18th century, according to the highest decree, a fortress was built on the Don River, for the patronage of which, as well as for the spiritual protection of the southern borders of the Russian Empire, the newly glorified saint of the Russian Orthodox Church, St. Demetrius of Rostov, was prayerfully summoned. Through the prayers and intercession of this great enlightener of Russia, the fortress quickly turned into a city, which at first was called the city of St. Demetrius of Rostov, simply Dimitrievsky, Rostov, and finally, to distinguish it from the ancient Rostov the Great, which is near Yaroslavl, Rostov-on-Don. To this day, residents of the “gates of the North Caucasus” honor the memory of their Heavenly Patron - St. Demetrius of Rostov, on October 4 and November 10.

Temple of Mid-Pentecost (Rostov-on-Don)[edit]

The history of the Prepolovensky Church dates back to 1820. Then the residents of the village of Nizhne-Gnilovskaya received consent from the military chancellery to build a stone church in the name of Mid-Pentecost.

The construction was led by peasants from the Vladimir province Ivan Eremeev and Mikhailo Blagoderov. Materials and money were collected, and artisans were invited. The construction of the temple was completed in 1829.

One throne was created - in honor of the feast of the Resurrection of Christ, but, at the request of the parishioners, with the celebration assigned to the day of Mid-Pentecost. In the same year, with the blessing of Epiphanius, Bishop of Voronezh and Cherkassy, the temple was consecrated.

The idea of building a parish on a cluttered wasteland in the city's Western residential area arose in 1994. Construction of the complex began with the construction of a gatehouse and a school.

At the end of the 20th century. A temple in honor of Sergius of Radonezh, a refectory, a prosphora and a sacristy appeared on the territory.

Church of the Great Martyr George the Victorious (Rostov-on-Don)

In 1994, a rather modest one-story church appeared in a residential area of the Sovetsky district of the city. In the same year, the first service in memory of St. George the Victorious was held in the temple. Priest Vladimir Ter-Arakelyants became the rector of the parish since 1994.

Over the next five years, the parish negotiated with the city for full ownership of the building and surrounding land. When the issue was successfully resolved, reconstruction began in the church building. In 2003, the Church of St. George the Victorious (Rostov-on-Don) acquired a new major extension to the old building. Until 2007, its decoration was carried out - painting the vaults and altar with canonical images, decorating the vaults and walls with stucco, and installing a metal fence around the temple.

Then a second floor was built over part of the church, where today there is a reception room and the rector’s office, a Sunday school auditorium, a library and a reading room.

Annunciation Greek Temple

As we have already said, Rostov-on-Don is a multinational city. Its temples were created for different faiths.

On the main pedestrian street of Rostov (Pushkinskaya), next to the modern building of the Don Public Library, there is the Annunciation Greek Temple, made in the neo-Byzantine style. In 1909 it was built on the territory of the Hellenic Charitable Society. This is the place where there used to be a Greek church, but in the sixties it was destroyed and the Rostov State Puppet Theater appeared in its place. Today, the construction of the temple has not yet been completed.
