The Trinity Cathedral ru. or is located in the Pskov Krom or Kremlin on the east bank of the Velikaya Great River. It has, since 1589, been the mother church of the Pskov Eparchy. The first wooden Trinity Cathedral the Russian term sobor, translated as cathedral can mean any major church irrespective of it being a cathedral church of a bishop was built in the tenth century, allegedly under the patronage of Princess Olga, but this seems unlikely as Olga s conversion was personal, and the conversion of the Rus Land did not occur until 988, almost two decades after her death. Thus, it seems likely the first church dates to the time of Christianization or shortly thereafter. This church was replaced by a stone church in 1138, allegedly at the behest of Prince Vsevolod Mstislavich , who died the previous year. The cathedral was destroyed and rebuilt several times over the centuries for example, the Novgorodian First Chronicle mentions that in 1365, Archbishop Aleksei of Novgorod r. 1359 1388 blessed the reconstruction of a stone church on the foundations of the original Trinity church it was completed in 1367 under the direction of Master Kirill who appears to have died in the plague of 1390 . ref A.
