The Alexander Nevsky Cathedral of Tallinn[a] is an Eastern Orthodox cathedral in central Tallinn, Estonia. It was built in 1894–1900,[1] when the country was part of the former Russian Empire. The cathedral is the city's largest cupola church. The late Patriarch Alexy II of Moscow (1929–2008) started his priestly ministry in the cathedral. It is the primary cathedral of the semi-autonomous Estonian Orthodox Church of the Moscow Patriarchate.
