What type of structure is the st basil cathedral?

St Basil's Cathedral in Moscow was built by the architects Barma and Postnik Yakovlev, on orders of Tsar Ivan IV (AKA Ivan the Terrible) between 1555 an 1562. There is much scientific debate on the question which cultures and existing architectural styles influenced its design. It probably is a mix of Byzantine, Russian and Italian influences. It is made of red brick around a wooden frame. Most of the vivid colors that today make the cathedral so noticable are additions of later centuries. There are strong indications that much of the brickwork - and certainly the decorative part - was done by German craftsmen. Over the centuries, many additions were built to give the cathedral its present look.

What was St basils cathedral built of?

It's made with a little bit of gold, but mostly wood, stone, and brick. The domes originally were helmet-shaped cupolas, but after a fire in 1583 they were replaced by ribbed or faceted onion domes. It is only since 1670 that the domes have been painted many colors; at one time St. Basil's was white with golden domes.
