Footage picturing destruction of Russian Orthodox churches after the revolution, filmed on black and white the footage depicts vandalism towards Cathedrals, icons, religion in general.
Communist theory sees religion as the "opiate of the masses," a tool which exploits the "have nots." Religion becomes a means by which the "haves" keep people obedient and docile. In February 1922, the Communist government announced that all valuable objects within the churches would be confiscated.
Footage of the Savior Cathedral destruction during Soviet times.
The Christ the Savior Cathedral was built (1839-1883) in memory of the Russian victory over Napoleon by Konstantin Ton (1797-1881), Russian architect, and founder of so-called Russian-Byzantine style. The Cathedral was destroyed on December 5th, 1931 so as to build a "Soviet Palace" 415 meters high with an 80-meter statue of Lenin on top. The Cathedral was rebuilt between 1995-2000.
