General information about Holy Exaltation of the Cross Cathedral (Zhytomyr)
The tall and slender Holy Exaltation of the Cross Cathedral is located in the historical heart of Zhytomyr on Castle Hill.
The Byzantine-style church was built in 1900 on the site of the wooden Trinity Church, which had existed since the 17th century.
In the 1930s, the temple was closed by the Soviet authorities, later transferred to the regional museum of local history. In 1987, it housed the exposition of the Museum of Nature, the geological collection of which was founded by Volyn Governor Mykhaylo Chertkov back in the 19th century.
After long discussions regarding the return of the Cathedral of the Exaltation of the Cross to Orthodox believers, in 2011 it was handed over to the UOC of the Moscow Patriarchate and consecrated in 2014.
Високий та стрункий Хрестовоздвиженський кафедральний собор розташований в історичному серці Житомира на Замковій горі.
Храм у візантійському стилі збудовано в 1900 році на місці дерев'яної Троїцької церкви, що існувала з XVII сторіччя.
В 1930-ті роки храм було закрито радянською владою, пізніше передано обласному краєзнавчому музею. В 1987 році в ньому розмістили експозицію музею природи, геологічна колекція якого була заснована волинським губернатором Михайлом Чертковим ще в XIX столітті.
Після тривалих дискусій щодо повернення Хрестовоздвиженського собору православним віруючим, в 2011 році його було передано УПЦ московського патріархату та освячено в 2014 році.
