The cathedral was dedicated to the baptist of Russia - the holy prince Vladimir. The external and internal appearance of the temple was conceived by the architects in the old Byzantine style - the same as the old Russian temples were built in the time of Vladimir the Saint and Yaroslav the Wise.
Vladimirsky Cathedral was founded in 1862, but its construction, complicated by technical difficulties, stretched from 1862 to 1896. The construction of the building was supervised by Academician V.N. Nikolaev with the participation of the architect K.Ya. Mayevsky and engineer D. Birkin. In the process of construction, the architect R.B. Bernhardt made some changes.
The solemn consecration of the cathedral took place on August 20, 1896 in the presence of Emperor Nicholas II and Empress Alexandra Feodorovna.
