Trinity Cathedral, St. Petersburg, Russia 

Trinity Cathedral (or Troitsky Ismailovsky sobor, in Russian) in St. Petersburg is another army church, built in 1828 to 1835 by architect Vasily Stasov with a massive central dome and four smaller one around it. It is a high point of Russian Neoclassical architecture. It is built on a Greek cross pattern with Empire style porticos each with six Corinthian columns on each of four equilateral sides of the church. 

According to the Russian tradition, each regiment of the imperial guards had its own cathedral. The Trinity Cathedral was the regimental church of the Izmailovsky regiment of Imperial guards, which takes its name from a royal residence in Tsarskoye Izmailovo, near Moscow. 

After the Revolution in 1917 it has ceased its function and after WWII it has become a warehouse of The Ministry of Telecommunications. It was reopened after 1990. During reconstruction in 2006 there was a big fire which damaged completely the main dome and one of the side domes, but was restored in 2010 to its pre-Revolutionary beauty.
