Abstract

The article is devoted to the role of religious buildings of different faith groups in the formation of the town spatial system of the Southern Russia in the XIX century. The authors identified features of the temples arrangement system in Taganrog, Novocherkassk, Rostov and Nakhichevan-on-Don. The importance of the temple as a compositional center of the classical ensemble and as the basis of the polycentric urban framework of the Southern Russian town of the XIX century is reflected in the article. The main types of the Orthodox Churches in towns of the region were specified in the second half of XIX century: city cathedral, parish and cemetery churches, chapel of a public building. The article presents main forms of integration of non-Orthodox religious buildings in the town planning pattern and town spatial framework which was typical for the region.
