Cathedral of the Lord's Ascension, Bacău

Bacău, Romania · built 2018

The Church of the Ascension of the Lord (Romanian: Biserica Înălțarea Domnului) is a church in Bacău, Romania and is the third largest cathedral in the country, after the People's Salvation Cathedral of Bucharest and the Holy Trinity Cathedral of Baia Mare. Officially the structure is a church and not a cathedral, because Bacău is not the seat of any bishop (the cathedral of the Bishop of Roman and Bacău, from which this parochial church belongs, being in Roman). However, due to its size and importance, it is called by the locals "cathedral" – in the sense used in the primary Christianity, that of the main place of the city. Officially if the bishop will serve in this church, it will be cathedral or co-cathedral.
