The Russian Orthodox Cathedral is to be found off Ennismore Gardens. The building was erected as an Anglican Church and consecration of the church took place in July 1849. The main façade seen here is a very close copy of that of the Basilica of San Zeno in Verona, Italy. The building was consecrated as an Orthodox Church in December 1956.
