Build-in 1845 in the Russian classicism style church is situated in the old city center. In 1878 Lucina’s (now Ludza’s) church has renamed a cathedral.

A permanent orthodox congregation (496 persons) in Lucina city was created in 1833 and a temporary church was placed on the second floor of a building belonging to the district administration. The masonry church (26x9m) construction lasted from 1843-1845., on August 19, 1945, a church was consecrated. Cathedral was built as a city center, where the main city streets meet near an Orthodox church. On September 30, 1906, for donations collected by church members, a large bell was raised in the bell tower, it weighs 1667 kilos.
Cathedral owns valuable holy paintings. It is definitely worth seeing the beautiful interior.
