The Assumption Cathedral, also called the Dormition Cathedral, is an Eastern Orthodox cathedral in Omsk, Russia, built of brick in the Russian Revival style. Designed by the Saint Petersburg architect Ernest Würrich, its fanciful blend of Russian and Byzantine forms makes it one of the largest churches in Siberia. Consecrated in 1898, it was blown up in 1935 and later rebuilt to Würrich's original designs.
