Intercession Cathedral
Покровский собор
One of the oldest surviving stone buildings in the city, an 18th-century Siberian Baroque church that now serves as the local Orthodox cathedral.
The church was built between 1785 and 1795 and is known for its white walls, green roof, and ornate Siberian Baroque decoration. During the Soviet era it was repurposed for other uses, but it was later restored as an Orthodox cathedral, and its restored iconostasis can be seen inside. It sits in the city center, near Surikov Street and Prospect Mira. Entry is free. Women must cover their heads and wear skirts below the knee, men must remove their hats, and flash photography is prohibited during services.
