General information about Holy Ascension Cathedral (Bilhorod-Dnistrovskyi)

The Holy Ascension Cathedral is the main Orthodox shrine and the largest temple in Bilhorod-Dnistrovskyi.

Свято-Вознесенський собор - головна православна святиня та найбільший храм Білгорода-Дністровського.

Будівництво на місці старого турецького цвинтаря велося з 1815 по 1820 рік на пожертви місцевих жителів. Спочатку храм мав вигляд корабля, але в 1830 році було прибудовано три портики по 4 колони, і собор набув вигляду хреста, характерного для російського класицизму. В 1971 році стіни та купол собору розписала родина художника Піскарьова з групою московських художників.

У Вознесенському соборі зберігається частка мощей Святого Іоанна Сучавського.

До собору примикала дзвіниця висотою 40 метрів, яка обрушилася в 2004 році (йде реставрація).

На території споруджено каплицю на честь 2000-річчя Різдва Христового.
