  • The Chapel of the Transfiguration or the Chapel of the Transfiguration of the Lord, is a religious building that is part of the Apostolic Nunciature of the Holy See in the city of Ashkhabad, the capital of the Asian country of Turkmenistan. The church was built in Ashabad from natural brick, in a Gothic style. In the huge altar was an icon of the Transfiguration of the Lord. On the sides of the altar were icons of Mary, donated by the Parish of St. Stanislav in St. Petersburg, and an icon of St. Expedite, ordered by the curator in Tashkent. After the destruction by the Communist authorities during the time of the Soviet Union in Turkmenistan of all Catholic churches in the town, the activities of the Catholic Church in that nation were very limited or officially prohibited. At the end of the twenties the Church was closed. The building fell into ruins and remained standing until 1932, when local authorities ordered to be destroyed, in the era of religious persecution in the Soviet Union. Instead after the earthquake prefabricated wooden houses were built. These houses have remained until today. After the fall of communism in the 1990s efforts were made to get approval from local authorities for reopening the places of Catholic worship, as part of these efforts the nunciature managed to open a chapel that is the center of Meeting of Catholics in that city, until you can build a church outside the protection provided by the Vatican nunciature, or embassy in Turkmenistan. Religious services are offered in both Russian and English. The name of the church is due to the missing Church of the Transfiguration of the Lord that was destroyed in 1932. (en)
  • La Capilla de la Transfiguración​ o bien la Capilla de la Transfiguración del Señor​ es el nombre que recibe un edificio religioso que forma parte de la nunciatura apostólica de la Santa Sede en la ciudad de Asjabad, la capital del país asiático de Turkmenistán. Después de la destrucción de todos los templos católicos en esa localidad por parte de las autoridades comunistas durante la época de la Unión Soviética en Turkmenistán, las actividades de la iglesia católica en esa nación estuvieron muy limitadas o prohibidas oficialmente. Tras la caída del comunismo en la década de 1990 se hicieron esfuerzos para conseguir la aprobación de las autoridades locales para la reapertura de los lugares de culto católicos, como parte de esos esfuerzos la nunciatura logró abrir una capilla que es el centro de Reunión de los católicos en esa ciudad, hasta que logre construirse un iglesia fuera de la protección que otorga la nunciatura o embajada del vaticano en Turkmenistán.​ Los servicios religiosos se ofrecen tanto en ruso como en inglés.​ El nombre de la iglesia se debe a la desaparecida Iglesia de la Transfiguración del Señor que fue destruida en 1932.
