About the cathedral: built in 2020, two floors: the upper church is dedicated to St. Nicholas the Wonderworker, the lower one is dedicated to the holy Apostle Andrew the First-Called. The interior and exterior decoration of St. Andrew's Church is focused on the best examples of Byzantine and Old Russian architecture.

The height of the temple is 55 meters. The temple is designed for one and a half thousand people. The monolithic reinforced concrete building of the temple, with a total area of about 4,500 square meters, was built on two floors, interconnected by three stairs. For the convenience of parishioners, the church has 3 elevators. The concrete elements of the dome are covered with smalt ceramics, and translucent elements are inserted into the windows. Depending on the holiday, the domes of the temple will glow in different colors.
