The '''Cathedral of Christ the Savior''' in [[Moscow]] was built in honor of [[Jesus Christ]] in thanksgiving for the [[Russia]]n victory over [[Napoleon Bonaparte]]. The design of the Cathedral was inspired by the famous church of [[Hagia SofiaSophia]] in [[Constantinople]]. Building commenced in 1839 and the Cathedral took many decades to build.[http://www.xxc.ru/english/]
After the [[October Revolution]] of 1917, the Russian Christian Church was savagely persecuted by the [[Communist]]s. Huge numbers of clergy and believers were murdered and imprisoned. In 1931, communist minister [[Lazar Kaganovich]] ordered the destruction of the Cathedral. The communists built a swimming pool on the site. Many millions of Christians were murdered in the 1930s by the communists.
