Old Holy Virgin Cathedral, San Francisco (Fulton Street)
Старый собор иконы Божией Матери «Всех скорбящих Радость» (Сан-Франциско, Фултон-стрит)
A parish of the Russian Orthodox Church Outside of Russia was formed in San Francisco in 1927 and first held services in premises on Sacramento Street. In 1931 it purchased the former St. Stephen's Episcopal Church on Fulton Street, built in 1880. Until 1965 the church was the cathedral of the Diocese of San Francisco and Western America; the see then moved to the new cathedral on Geary Boulevard. The building is San Francisco Landmark No. 28.
