Pargi 1a, Valga 57.775605, 26.044679 57 ° 46 '32.18 ", 26 ° 2' 40.84" The Isidorov Church was built according to the project of the diocesan architect V.I. Lunsky made of brick in the style of Moscow-Byzantine churches with 5 domes and a bell tower. The church was consecrated on October 18, 1898 by St. Agathangel (Preobrazhensky), Bishop of Riga and Mitava. In 1913, the St. Nicholas Church in Valga burned down, and the Isidorov Church adopted an Orthodox Estonian parish. In 1923, the church in the name of smschmch. Isidore, presbyter of Yuryevsky, received the status of a cathedral. In the early 90s, a parish that survived wars and godless hard times was driven out of its native church by representatives of Constantinople. Keeping fidelity to the Mother Church of the Moscow Patriarchate, inspired by the rector priest Jacob Metsalu, the parishioners prayed at the church fence, then began to gather in the old Nikolsky cemetery (Tartu mnt. Kalmistu). On December 1, 1998, a temporary church was consecrated in honor of the Holy Communist Church. Isidor Yuryevsky (now it is a small chapel). The consecration of the new Orthodox Church in the name of the Vladimir Icon of the Mother of God was performed by Metropolitan of Tallinn and all Estonia by Cornelius on August 11, 2001.
