Lonely Planet review for Chiesa Russa Ortodossa

Rising incongruously above the smart palazzi north of the centre are five graceful onion domes belonging to the Russian Orthodox Church, built and decorated by Russian architects and artists in 1902. Florence was a popular 19th-century winter retreat for wealthy Russians - Tchaikovsky and Dostoevsky among them.
