Podgorica Cathedral of the Resurrection of Christ, Montenegro.

Due to damage during World War II, Podgorica was mostly built after the war. Podgorica Cathedral, also known as the Cathedral of the Resurrection of Christ, is the largest Orthodox church in Podgorica, the capital of Montenegro. Construction of the church began in 1993 and was completed on October 7, 2014. The church was built to commemorate the 1,700th anniversary of the Edict of Milan, which was the beginning of the Roman Empire's official tolerance of Christianity. The church's exterior is grand and simple, with many golden crosses on the roof, three bell towers on the front, and a unique semicircular arched door. The interior is resplendent, with the dome and walls covered with various biblical stories, figures, and major events in the Orthodox Church. The designer of the church was ingenious, using white marble for the exterior walls, incorporating both Byzantine elements and ancient Roman art.
