The Cathedral of the Vladimir Icon of the Mother of God is an Eastern Orthodox cathedral at 20 Vladimirsky Prospect in Saint Petersburg, Russia, and the avenue takes its name from it. Built next to Vladimirsky Market between 1761 and 1769, its five-domed design is frequently ascribed to Pietro Antonio Trezzini and straddles Baroque and Neoclassicism. Its Baroque iconostasis was transferred from the Anichkov Palace chapel in 1808.
