History.
The church was constructed on the site of an ancient cemetery, allocated for charitable means by the local Orthodox Christians and Muslims. As of 1916, the church was considered a cathedral. The Alexander Nevsky Church was constructed in the Byzantine style with the use of brick called "plinfa". In 1931, the church was closed down, and from 1935 to 1938 the building housed the museum of local history. Later the museum was transferred to another building and the church was turned into a warehouse. In 1946, the building was reopened as a church. Icons of the pre-revolutionary interior have survived. Among them there are icons of St. Alexander Nevsky and Mary Magdalene.
In September 1997, the 110th anniversary of the church was celebrated.
