St. Isaac Cathedral

The dome of St. Isaac’s Cathedral dominates the skyline of St. Petersburg, the church itself is
an architectural marvel. Built by the French-born architect August Montferrand to be the main church of the Russian Empire, the cathedral was under construction for 40 years (1818-1858), and was decorated in the most elaborate way possible. When you enter the cathedral you pass through one of the porticos - note that the columns are made of single pieces of red granite and weight 80 tons (about 177 770 pounds) each.

Inside the church many of the icons were created using mosaic techniques and the iconostasis
is decorated with 8 malachite and 2 lapis lazuli columns. The cathedral, which can accommodate 14 000 worshipers, now serves as a museum and services are hold only on significant ecclesiastical holidays.
