The Holy Trinity Cathedral is an Eastern Orthodox church located in Niš, Serbia. It is under jurisdiction of the Eparchy of Niš of the Serbian Orthodox Church and serves as its cathedral church.
After the Church of Saint Sava and the Church of Saint Mark, both in Belgrade, the Holy Trinity Cathedral is the largest in Serbia. Both in terms of its architecture and the icons made for the iconostasis, it occupies an important place in the Serbian history of art. Different stylistic motives are present on the church: Serbian-Byzantine, Romanesque-Byzantine and Islamic architecture, but also Renaissance and Western Baroque. Such a conception of landmarks is a turning point in the history of Serbian architecture, which is reflected in the abandonment of the classical conception and the creation of national landmarks.
The Holy Trinity Cathedral Church was severely damaged in the Allied bombing in 1944 and in the fire in 2001.

Emperor Claudius Gothicus decisively defeated the Goths at the Battle of Naissus. Later playing a prominent role in the history of the Byzantine Empire, the city's past would earn it the nickname Imperial City.
After about 400 years of Ottoman rule, the city was liberated in 1878 and became part of the Principality of Serbia, though not without great bloodshed—remnants of which can be found throughout the city. Today, Niš is one of the most important economic centers in Serbia, especially in the electronics, mechanical engineering, textile, and tobacco industries. Constantine the Great Airport is Niš's international airport. The city is also the seat of the University of Niš, the Eparchy of Niš and the Command of Serbian Army.
In 2013, the city was host to the celebration of 1700 years of Constantine's Edict of Milan.
