Tips

Beyond the Horizon

October 27, 2024

The Orthodox Church of the Kazan Icon of the Mother of God in Jūrmala is an impressive architectural highlight, built in 2013 on the foundations of an older, destroyed church from 1896. The colorful blue and gold domes stand out clearly against the green surroundings, and the artistic design of the facade draws the eye.

The church symbolizes a special spiritual significance: The Kazan Icon itself is revered in the Russian Orthodox tradition as a protective and blessing icon that is said to have once saved Russia from the downfall. The Icon of the Mother of God of Kazan has been valued as a miraculous icon for centuries and has a turbulent history that also made it a symbol of faith and hope. In Jūrmala, the icon finds a worthy representation through the new church building and gives the surroundings a solemn atmosphere
