St' Vladimir's Cathedral in Khersonesus was laid in 1861 to the design by Grimm. The building was erected by architects Vyatkin and Tarasov and later contractor Gubonin. The pictorial works were done by Maikov, Korzukhin, Neff. In 1892 the construction of the cathedral came to an end. Built of the Inkerman stone and embellished with different rocks of marble, the cathedral became the remarkable work of cult architecture. Built in the spirit of the Byzantine architecture, it is distinguished for its exceptional harmony of sizes, proportionality of the scale and steadiness of the masses.
During the Great Patriotic War the building was bombed. At present it is in the state of emergency.
