Here is an original building right in the centre of Nice which does not stand here by chance. Inaugurated in 1912, this magnificent cathedral is a testament to the importance of the Russian community on the Côte d'Azur at this time. It was built at the heart of a huge green park, where a chapel built in tribute to the late son of Alexander II, Emperor of Russia is also enthroned. To date, it is the biggest religious building of its kind situated outside Russia.
