Resurrection Cathedral
Katedralja Ngjallja e Krishtit
A landmark of Korçë and one of Albania's largest Orthodox churches, its twin bell towers standing at the end of the city's main pedestrian boulevard.
The original cathedral was demolished during the 1968 atheist campaign. The present church was rebuilt in the 1990s and consecrated in 1995. It is the cathedral seat of the Orthodox Metropolis of Korçë in Albania. The exterior is Byzantine Revival in red brick and white stone, with striking twin bell towers, and the icons inside are richly gilded. The church faces St. George Boulevard, a pedestrian street where locals take evening strolls. Entry is free. Please keep quiet and dress appropriately during religious services.
