About

The church is located right in the center of the city, on Strada Păcii, being known among the locals as the "Church with the Clock" or the "Bulgarian Church".

It was built in 1852 by the Bulgarian community and founded by Beiul Dumitrache Teodorof, Stefanache Teodorof and Hagi Veliu, the first and last having their tombstones in the church yard. The bell tower was built in Gothic style in 1857.

It is worth saying that the beautiful place and the entire area of ​​5000 square meters were left by compensation from the Bulgarian community with the population exchange in 1940. In 1942, it owned 5 buildings and 2 vacant places.

The church has icons painted by Cardas, the monk Sofonie, Hiriciaschi, D. Stanislavov, N. Pavlovici, Hotinci Ivan and the painter Iorgu Nicolae, painted in oil on wood and purchased between 1860-1899.
