The cathedral was built as a monument to the Tula warriors, who died on the battlefields of the Patriotic War of 1812, with funds collected by subscription to citizens of all classes.

Unfortunately, until our time the cathedral has come in a distorted form: four small drums with glazes have been lost, and the central drum is covered with a flat roof. In 1970-80s, the building of the church was reconstructed, in 1989 the Museum of Arms was opened ...
