General information about Church of the Holy Martyr Oleksandra (Kherson)
The Church of the Holy Martyr Oleksandra in Kherson was founded in 1898. The elegant church was built according to the project of the provincial architect Kazymyr Kvinto as the home church of the Second Mariyinska Girls' Gymnasium.
The tented ends of the main room and the belfry were originally crowned with bulbous capitals. In the architecture of the temple, the influence of Moscow architecture of the 17th century with the use of the Romanesque style can be felt.
In the interior, stucco decoration has been preserved, as well as carved marble kiots, which survived from the original iconostasis of the work of the famous sculptor Borys Eduards.
Currently, the church belongs to the community of the Orthodox Church of Ukraine.
Церква святої мучениці цариці Олександри в Херсоні закладена в 1898 році. Витончений храм зведений за проєктом губернського архітектора Казимира Квінто як домова церква Другої Маріїнської жіночої гімназії.
Шатрові завершення основного приміщення та дзвіниці спочатку увінчували цибулинні главки. В архітектурі храму відчувається вплив московської архітектури XVII сторіччя із застосуванням романського стилю.
В інтер'єрі зберігся ліпний декор, а також різьблені мармурові кіоти, які вціліли від початкового іконостасу роботи відомого скульптора Бориса Едуардса.
Наразі храм належить громаді Православної церкви України.
