Moscow: The construction of the Resurrection Cathedral, which will become the main shrine of the Russian military, has reached a milestone. One of the six domes to be erected in the shining towers of the Temple was erected this Friday. The dome, weighing 34 tons, was erected with a huge crane. The dome, which is 12 meters across, is decorated with titanium. The dome placed in the central tower of the temple is even larger. The sixth dome will be placed in the bell.
The shrine is being built in Patriot Park, the main exhibition venue of the Russian Defense Ministry near Moscow. The domes were made in the shape of a medieval tapestry to complement a military shrine. Steel domes are covered with titanium nitride layers instead of gold. The church is estimated to cost 300 billion rubles ($ 4.7 billion) and is mainly funded by private individuals.
The decoration of the shrine is reminiscent of its relationship with the army. The military awards will be decorated with chill windows in the shrine. The shrine is built as a memorial to the brave soldiers who fought for Russia in history. It is interesting to note that the four smaller towers of the shrine are dedicated to the four saints who were the mediators of the Russian Armed Forces.
