RE: The Trinity-Peter cathedral. St. Petersburg.

Such a beautiful church and so sad it was intentionally destroyed. Wars are such cruel things to not only local populations but to their faith and lovely architecture. It's nice to know the dedicated chapel is still used.

Yes, it's a pity that the original church was destroyed. The period of Russian history from 1917 to 1987 was a difficult period for the Orthodox faith. Many religious buildings were affected then. I am glad that people have regained their faith.
