Church of St. Alexander Nevsky, Vilnius

Vilnius, Lithuania

Saint Alexander Nevsky Church (Lithuanian: Šv. Aleksandro Neviškio cerkvė) is an Eastern Orthodox church in the Naujininkai district of Vilnius dedicated to patron saint Alexander Nevsky. It was built in 1898 and closed by the Soviet government in 1959. After the dissolution of the Soviet Union in 1991, it was given back to the Russian Orthodox Church, but due to the destruction of the interior of the building during the period of closure, it was not reopened as a church until 2012. It belongs to the Russian Orthodox Diocese of Lithuania.
