St. Nicholas Church

Taganrog, Rostov Oblast Russia

Russian Orthodox

The church, the oldest in Taganrog, was built in 1778. It was dedicated to St. Nicholas because Taganrog was the Russian Naval Base before the base at Sevastopol was established. The church was completely burned in 1941 and rebuilt in the early 1990s. The churchyard has a chapel with the relics of Saint Pavel of Taganrog.
