Resurrection Cathedral Korçë

About

The Resurrection of Christ Cathedral of Korçë (Albanian: Katedralja “Ngjallja e Krishtit”) is the main Albanian Orthodox church in Korçë, Albania. A previous cathedral in Korçë named after St. George was destroyed by the Communist authorities in 1968.

It was built by Greece and received the money for construction from Orthodox Albanians and also from Orthodox members of the Albanian diaspora. It is painted in pink, blue and brown. Inside, the modest white interior is dominated by a huge carved wooden iconostasis.
