Свято-Троїцький собор у Сумах - один із найкрасивіших храмів міста, схожий на Ісаакіївський собор у Санкт-Петербурзі.

Побудований у 1901-1914 роках в стилі класицизму з елементами бароко за проєктом архітектора Карла Шольца коштом промисловця та мецената Павла Харитоненка.

Інтер'єри оформлені художником Михайлом Нестеровим (мармуровий іконостас не зберігся). Проєкт мозаїчної підлоги та церковної огорожі виконав відомий архітектор Олексій Щусєв. Над вітражем "Трійця" працював петербурзький художник Кузьма Петров-Водкін.

До останнього часу Троїцький собор використовувався як будинок органної музики. В 1996 році повернуто віруючим, зараз належить УПЦ московського патріархату.
