Great Zlatoust

The bell tower of the Great Zlatoust was built in the classical Russian-Byzantine style. Its height reached 65 meters, so for more than a hundred years Bolshoy Zlatoust was the tallest building in Yekaterinburg, its largest bell weighing 16 tons was called Bolshoy Zlatoust. It was the fourth largest bell in the Russian Empire, second only to the two bells of the Ivan the Great Bell Tower in the Kremlin and the bell at St. Isaacs Cathedral in St. Petersburg.
In 1930, the Great Zlatoust was blown up, and a small square appeared in its place. In 2006, work began on the restoration of the temple, and on February 8, 2013, the solemn consecration of the new temple took place.
