St. Nicholas Cossack Cathedral, Omsk, Omskaya oblast, Russia
The St. Nicholas Cossack Cathedral in Omsk, Russia is one of the oldest churches in Siberia. It was built in 1843 basing on the drawings by a prominent architect Vasily Stasov.
The author of the Cathedral original draft was a brilliant architect V.P. Stasov (1769–1848). In 1826 he created the project for St. Petersburg: “The facade and the plan of the expected Church in the name of St. Nicholas”. A refectory and a bell tower were not included in the Church figure by Stasov.
