Saint Peters and Pauls Cathedral

TIME : 2016/2/19 3:09:45

The Jesuit complex on vul Kafedralna was designed in the early to mid-17th century by Italian architect Giacomo Briano. The stately, newly renovated facade of the cathedral dates from 1640, the renovated interior – painted in pink and yellow tones – resembling a massive Easter egg. Closed following WWII, the building served as a museum of atheism in the 1970s.
