Cathédrale de la Sainte-Trinité

Very modern on the outside, small but with beautiful icons. The gift shop has some very nice articles and lots of Russian books. The silk scarves from this and the cathedral in Nice are beautiful.

Travelling across Pont de L'Alma one cannot unsee the Golden Onion Domes that top the Orthodox Russian Church to the right side. Although not in keeping with most of the architecture one associates with Paris, it stands as a reminder that the city hosts congregations, from all denominations of the world, that worship and work here. There are plenty of other places to pray without decrying this one.

An interesting sight in the city. It makes for a unique photo with the eiffel tower.

At first glance I thought it was a mosque until I noticed the crosses on its top, it's common for orthodox church to have an onion dome. Its golden domes are eye catching even when you pass by the other side of Seine near Pont de L'Alma. Too bad that the church and other parts of the Centre Spirituel et Culturel Orthodoxe Russe were shut down, seemed to be an act of cancelling Russia for its invasion on Ukraine. I mean unless the church is talking politics, putting a line around the area to indicate its closing is just sad.

Beautiful church and welcoming people

Very unique structure in the very center of Paris. The exterior is a lot more interesting than inside. Beautiful

Beautiful domed Russian Orthodox cathedral, in overlooked by the Eifel Tower. A truly brilliant addition to the Parisian boulevards. Highly recommended!

Always closed. Nice gift from Putin. Golden domes ✨☦️
