Church of the Intercession of the Most Holy Theotokos

The temple was built in 1903 and during its construction it was called the "Temple in memory of the Ascension of the Lord." Then the temple had a patronal feast — the day of the Ascension of the Lord.

The marching (attached to the shelf) temple was established in 1910. Russian Russian Cemetery was located in one of the barracks buildings of the former 5th Turkestan Rifle Regiment, located in the Russian part of the city of Samarkand, not far from the Russian Orthodox cemetery, founded in 1900.

In 1912, it was called the "Temple of the 2nd Turkestan Rifle Brigade." It could accommodate up to 300 people, had rich church utensils and an iconostasis (not preserved). According to the staff, there is one priest at the temple.

In 1930, the temple, like many temples in Uzbekistan, was closed. In early 1998, it was restored and named the "Church of the Intercession of the Most Holy Theotokos", in honor of the Intercession of the Most Holy Theotokos.

The temple building is built of burnt brick. It has a huge bell tower. The temple has a prayer hall with an iconostasis and choir rooms. A special feature of the temple is the light attic.

Today, priest Roman Zagrebelny performs divine services in the church.
