St Icaac’s Cathedral is the
St Icaac’s Cathedral is the largest Orthodox Christian cathedral in St Petersburg, Russia, built in 1858 by the project of French architect Ogust Monferran in the style of the Russian late classicism.
The construction continued for 40 years. Started in 1818 and finished as I already said in 1858
Since 1928, St Isaac’s Cathedral is also having a status of the museum.
St Isaac was a founder of the Dalmatian Monastery in Constantinople, was a Christian monk who is honored as a saint and confessor. He is sometimes referred to as Isaac the Dalmatian, not because he came from Dalmatia, but because of the monastery which he founded.
While the birth year of St Isaac is unknown, his dead day is 30th of May of 383 (so, it’s over 1640 years ago)
and 30th of May is age birthday of Peter the Great,Russian Emperor and the founder of St Petersburg.
During the construction of St Isaac’s Cathedral they used the newest construction technologies which then influenced the further development of an architecture of 19th and 20th century.
The height of St Isaac’s Cathedral is 101.5 meters. It is surrounded by 112 columns. The area of St Isaac’s Cathedral can simultaneously accept 14,000 visitors.
An architect of Capitol in Washington DC, Thomas Walter used the sketches of Monferran for the creation of the dome. That’s why they are so alike.
In November, 2023, when I film this video, the ticket price is 450₽ which is about 5 US dollars.
Inside of St Isaac’s Cathedral you now will see one of the most breathtaking interiors full of icons, mosaic images, stained glass and many more. Marble is everywhere. In total 400kg of gold and 1000 tons of bronze used in total in the decoration of the interior.
