History
editThe history of the Catholic parish of Rostov-on-Don began in the second half of the nineteenth century. But like many churches in the country, Rostov church was destroyed by the Communists in the mid-twentieth century. The parish was reborn in 1992 when normal relations were established between the State and the various denominations after the fall of the Soviet Union.[citation needed]
The first stone of the present church was laid in the spring of 1999 and construction of the parish. The church was consecrated on September 19, 2004.[citation needed]
