Old doors of Chisinau . Each house in the historical center of Chisinau is a whole story not only of Moldova, but of Russia, Romania, Greece and other countries. Unfortunately, these evidences of the city's history continue to deteriorate and disappear, leaving only a memory among the old people and the lovers of antiquity. Often we do not pay attention to them, although they are real evidence of the past. The old doors have seen a lot in their time. These beautiful creations of old masters are gradually being replaced by more practical and sturdy, but alas, faceless and soulless iron doors. According to some sources there was the Food Authority behind this door. Now this door is closed. . . . . . . . #TheGlobalGrid #TheGlobalGridTakeover #WayFindingGuideChisinau #Moldova #Chisinau #Europe #Country #Street #City #OldDoors #OldBuilding #History (at Chisinau, Moldova)

The Central Cathedral . The Cathedral of the Nativity of Christ is a Chisinau Metropolitanate cathedral church of the Russian Orthodox Church and is an architectural monument of the XIX century. The cathedral was built in 1830-1836 as the main city church on the initiative of the Metropolitan of Bessarabia, Gabriel Banulescu-Bodoni. The project of the cathedral was designed by the architect Avraam Melnikov. October 13, 1836 the consecration of the cathedral and the chapel took place. The cathedral was built in the Russian classicism style. In June 1941, the building of the cathedral was badly damaged by bombing. The restoration of the cathedral began in September of the same year and was completed only in the 1950s. In 1962, by order of the administration of Chisinau, the bell tower was blown up. Church services were terminated in the church building, and it was transformed into an exhibition hall. The building of the cathedral was returned to the church in 1989-1991. After that, work began on its restoration. On August 25, 1996, the reconstruction works were completed. On the same day, the first stone of the new bell tower was laid, the construction of which ended in 1997. . . . . . . . #TheGlobalGrid #TheGlobalGridTakeover #WayFindingGuideChisinau #Moldova #Chisinau #Europe #Country #Urban #City #OldBuilding #History #Cathedral #Church (at Chisinau, Moldova)
