A beautiful cathedral, an interesting museum. There are organ concerts in the cathedral. They say that it will be handed over to the church and there will be no more concerts.
The temple fascinates with its architecture, I advise everyone to listen to the organ in this temple

It's an amazing place. Entrance to the territory is 150 rubles (2021). 4th century. There is an organ music concert inside the temple every week. The cathedral is not functioning, it is used only as a museum or concert hall.
The cathedral now has a concert hall. The face of Jesus Christ looks down from the dome at the bacchanal...there is no other way to call it. They desecrated the holy place, put up an organ, sandblasted the frescoes and plaster to the brick to enhance the sound.... Sadly
Wonderful organ music concerts. We got there by accident and did not regret it. Excellent acoustics. Adequate prices. I was in Riga and couldn't get to an organ music concert. It is very affordable in Pitsunda, at least it was in July 2019 without any problems.
I always knew that I was happy. I am happy that my constant conversation with members of the Politburo of the Central Committee of the CPSU - Kosygin, Kirilenko, etc., to whom I revealed the special acoustic data of the Cathedral and this building can become another outstanding cultural center if an ORGAN is placed here. Alexey Nikolaevich Kosygin, Chairman of the Council of Ministers, gladly accepted my proposal and immediately allocated finances to the Management of the Pitsunda resort. This universal joy, which I consider to be my personal one.
