Казанский собор воспринимался современниками как памятник ратных побед русского народа в Отечественной войне 1812 года. В 1812 году сюда доставлены трофеи: военные французские знамёна и личный жезл наполеоновского маршала Даву. Здесь же был похоронен фельдмаршал Кутузов.
До конца 1829 года в соборе продолжалась работа по отделке, которой руководил Огюст Монферран. Первый ремонт в соборе прошёл в 1844—1845 годах, второй, включавший в себя реставрацию образов и стенной живописи, — в 1862—1865 годах.
Несмотря на культовый характер здания, площадь перед ним всегда привлекала интерес революционно настроенных масс. 6 (18) декабря 1876 года здесь произошла первая демонстрация народнической группы «Земля и воля» и впервые выступил Георгий Плеханов (после октябрьской революции его временный памятник находился между изваяниями Кутузова и Барклая-де-Толли). Здесь достигали пика студенческие демонстрации, начинавшиеся у Аничкова моста. В Кровавое воскресенье 1905 года толпа соорудила баррикады из скамеек в только что оформившемся сквере у собора.
27 октября (8 ноября) 1893 года в соборе отпевали Петра Чайковского.
21 февраля (6 марта) 1913 года в соборе во время празднования 300-летия дома Романовых произошла давка, по официальной версии, унёсшая жизни 34 человек.
24 мая (6 июня) 1917 года в соборе путём «свободного голосования клира и мирян» состоялись выборы правящего архиерея (единственный раз за всю истории епархии). Большинство голосов выборщиков получил епископ Гдовский Вениамин.
18 января 1921 года митрополит Вениамин освятил «пещерный» зимний придел священномученика Гермогена, патриарха Московского.
Kazan Cathedral or Kazanskiy Kafedralniy Sobor (Russian: Каза́нский кафедра́льный собо́р), also known as the Cathedral of Our Lady of Kazan, is a cathedral of the Russian Orthodox Church on the Nevsky Prospekt in Saint Petersburg. It is dedicated to Our Lady of Kazan, probably the most venerated icon in Russia.
The construction was started in 1801 and continued for ten years while being supervised by Alexander Sergeyevich Stroganov. Upon its completion in 1811, the new temple replaced the Church of Nativity of the Theotokos, which was disassembled when the Kazan Cathedral was consecrated.
It was modelled by Andrey Voronikhin after the St. Peter's Basilica in Rome. Some art historians assert that Emperor Paul intended to build a similar church on the other side of Nevsky Prospect that would mirror the Kazan Cathedral but his plans failed to materialize.[citation needed] Although the Russian Orthodox Church strongly disapproved of the plans to create a replica of a Catholic basilica in Russia's then capital, several courtiers supported Voronikhin's Empire Style design.
After Napoleon invaded Russia in 1812, and the commander-in-chief Mikhail Kutuzov asked Our Lady of Kazan for help, the church's purpose was to be altered. The Patriotic War over, the cathedral was perceived primarily as a memorial to the Russian victory against Napoleon. Kutuzov himself was interred in the cathedral in 1813; and Alexander Pushkin wrote celebrated lines meditating over his sepulchre. In 1815, keys to seventeen cities and eight fortresses were brought by the victorious Russian army from Europe and placed in the cathedral's sacristy. In 1837, Boris Orlovsky designed two bronze statues of Kutuzov and Barclay de Tolly in front of the cathedral.
In 1876, the Kazan demonstration, the first political demonstration in Russia, took place in front of the church. After the Russian Revolution of 1917, the cathedral was closed. In 1932 it was reopened as the pro-Marxist Museum of the History of Religion and Atheism. Services were resumed in 1992, and four years later the cathedral was returned to the Russian Orthodox Church. Now it is the mother cathedral of the metropolis of St. Petersburg.
The cathedral's interior, with its numerous columns, echoes the exterior colonnade and is reminiscent of a palatial hall, being 69 metres in length and 62 metres in height. The interior features numerous sculptures and icons created by the best Russian artists of the day. A wrought iron grille separating the cathedral from a small square behind it is sometimes cited as one of the finest ever created.
The cathedral's huge bronze doors are one of three copies of the original doors of the Baptistry in Florence, Italy (the other two are in San Francisco and on the Baptistry itself).

Раифский Богородицкий монастырь — крупнейший действующий мужской монастырь Казанской епархии Русской православной церкви. Основан в XVII веке отшельником Филаретом в 27 км к северо-западу от Казани. До пожара 1689 г. обитель оставалась полностью деревянной. Каменный ансамбль начал складываться с рубежа XVII-XVIII вв. В 1690-1717 гг. построены ныне существующие зубчатые стены и башни. Они вытянулись по периметру более чем на полкилометра и образовали живописный монастырский кремль. Комплекс монастыря включает возведенную в камне церковь Свв. Отцев, в Раифе и Синае избиенных (1708 г.); Софийскую церковь над братскими кельями (1739-1827), которая является одной из самых маленьких церквей — в храмовой части могут находиться только 7 человек; Грузинский собор в стиле классицизма (1835-1842 гг.); надвратную колокольню (1889-1903 гг.) — самое высокое сооружение монастыря (около 60 м) и возведенный в 1904-1910 годах Троицкий собор в неорусском стиле. Последними строениями Раифской пустыни являются колокольня с надвратной церковью во имя Архистратига Божия Архангела Михаила, построенная на месте пришедших в ветхость башни с холодной надвратной церковью во имя Святителя Николая. Строительство колокольни было начато в 1889 году. Сейчас замечательно восстановленный архитектурный ансамбль монастыря — один из самых величественных и роскошных в Среднем Поволжье. Особую живописность ему придает уникальное природное окружение: Раифское озеро (длиной около 1,5 км и средней шириной 300 м) и великолепный сосновый лес, объявленный заповедником.

Свя́то-Тро́ицкий же́нский монасты́рь — монастырь Муромской епархии Русской православной церкви, расположенный в городе Муроме. Известен тем, что в нём сохраняются мощи святых Петра и Февронии, которые почитаются в России как покровители семьи и брака.
Монастырь основан во второй четверти XVII века (1643) муромским купцом Тарасием Борисовичем Цветновым, по мнению ряда краеведов — на месте так называемого «старого городища», где первоначально в период XI—XIII веков располагался деревянный кафедральный собор в честь святых Бориса и Глеба, а позднее существовал деревянный Свято-Троицкий храм.
В 1642—1643 годах «тщанием и снисканием» Тарасия Цветнова на месте деревянного храма был возведен Свято-Троицкий каменный собор, сохранившийся до настоящего времени. В 1643 году Тарасий Цветнов просил у епископа Рязанского и Муромского разрешения на основание при соборе монастыря, и такое согласие он получил.
Главным украшением Свято-Троицкого собора являются кованные золоченые кресты — шедевры кузнечной работы муромских умельцев XVII века, — и поливные изразцы того же столетия с разнообразными орнаментами. Изразцы придают Троицкому собору особое изящество и неповторимое своеобразие, отличающее его от других муромских храмов. Стиль, в котором создан этот собор, называется русское узорочье.
В 1648—1652 годах в южной части монастыря на одном фундаменте были построены надвратная шатровая церковь во имя Казанской иконы Божией Матери и прорезная многоярусная колокольня.

STORYLINE:
A Russian icon that hung for years in Pope John Paul II's private chapel returned home to the Russian Orthodox Church on Saturday, a gesture the ailing pontiff hopes will improve relations between the two churches.
A senior Vatican delegation, headed by Cardinal Walter Kasper, handed over the 18th century replica of the Mother of God of Kazan icon to Russian Orthodox Patriarch Alexy II during an Orthodox service marking the Feast of the Assumption in the Kremlin's Assumption Cathedral.
The 84-year-old John Paul, the Roman Catholic Church's first Slavic pope, has long hoped to visit Russia, and initially considered returning the icon himself.
But while the collapse of the atheist Soviet state made it possible to conceive of such a visit, the faith free-for-all that followed in Russia soured relations between the churches, giving birth to a new kind of antagonism and distrust a millennium after the Great Schism divided Christianity into eastern and western branches.
The Orthodox Church has accused the Vatican of trying to poach converts among Russian Orthodox believers, while the Catholic Church counters that it is trying to minister to the small Catholic community - about 600,000 people or less than 1 percent of Russia's 144 million.
Alexy emphasised earlier this month that the Pope is not welcome in Russia, telling President Vladimir Putin that the icon is just one of many copies so there is no reason for John Paul to personally deliver it.
The 32 by 26 centimetre (12 by 10 inch) icon, taken to the West after the 1917 Russian Revolution, was presented to the pope by a Catholic group in 1993 and has hung in his private chapel.
The original icon, which first appeared in the Volga River city of Kazan in 1579, is revered by Russian believers for its purported ability to work miracles, including the rout of Polish invaders from Russia in the early 17th century.
It hung in the Kazan Cathedral on Moscow's Red Square and the Kazan Cathedral in St. Petersburg before disappearing.
A joint commission including representatives of the Vatican, the Russian church and the Russian Culture Ministry examined the pope's icon last year and determined it dated from around the 18th century.
But, nevertheless, the pope has said that it is dear to him, noting that it has watched over his daily work and the Vatican has emphasised this in talking about its return.
