Alexander Church
The cornerstone of Narva's Alexander church was laid in summer 1881, the same spring Emperor Alexander II was assassinated, and the Lutheran church was dedicated to his memory and consecrated on 9 June 1884. President Lennart Meri granted it cathedral status on 19 September 2000. In 2015 the congregation went bankrupt, unable to pay for the reconstruction of its tower, and the cathedral was due to be auctioned off; after many appeals the auction was cancelled and the Estonian state and the Lutheran Church bought the building together for 375,000 euros.

Eesti keeles
Narva Aleksandri kiriku nurgakivi pandi 1881. aasta suvel, samal kevadel, mil tapeti keiser Aleksander II, ning luterlik kirik pühendati tema mälestusele ja pühitseti 9. juunil 1884. President Lennart Meri andis sellele 19. septembril 2000 katedraali staatuse. 2015. aastal läks kogudus pankrotti, kuna ei suutnud tasuda torni rekonstrueerimise kulusid, ja katedraal pidi minema oksjonile; pärast mitmeid pöördumisi oksjon tühistati ning Eesti riik ja Eesti Evangeelne Luterlik Kirik ostsid hoone ühiselt 375 000 euro eest.
