History
Church of the Saint Queen Alexandra was built in 1904 at the Orthodox cemetery of Nakhichevan-on-Don to replace a wooden chapel there.[1] For this reason, the size of the temple is relatively small: about 18 × 13 metres.[3] Architect Vladimir Popov built the church in Russian Revival style. In 1910, there was constructed a belfry, and in 1920 ― a narthex. Church of Queen Alexandra was initially assigned to the Sofia Church (which hasn't preserved). During the Nazi occupation of the city at Alexandrian cemetery there were buried Romanian Orthodox soldiers.[1] In 1955, on the north side of the temple, there was constructed a chapel in the name of the Saint Prince Alexander Nevsky ― in memory of the demolished church of Alexander Nevsky in Nakhichevan-on-Don.[4] To celebrate the 1000th anniversary of the Christianization of Rus', the dome was gilded.[1]
Sunday school operates at the Alexandrian Church. In 2002 at church there was established a Museum of Archpriest Ioann Domovsky, who served in the Temple of Alexander Nevsky.[5]
