Bucharest Tour: Old Churches
It’s a true miracle that a number of Bucharest’s awesome churches have survived wars, earthquakes and communism, preserving magnificent décor elements and fresco paintings. Today, they are Bucharest’s must-see regardless of the season or time of the day. And with many of them located right in the Old Town or along the stunning Victory Avenue (Calea Victoriei) Bucharest’s churches are an easy reach for a visitor.
Dating back to the 16th, 17th and 18th centuries, Bucharest’s churches represent a unique chance to dive deep into Romania’s religious history and architecture, which are rooted in local traditions, Byzantine epoch and Orthodoxy.
Churches, which can be found in the Old Town and along Calea Victoriei:
The Old Court Church (16th century) – the oldest preserved church in its original appearance in Bucharest.
Stavropoleos church (early 18th century) – Founded as part of Stavropoleos Convent for nuns, the church was erected in the early 18th century. Today it’s the only structure of the Convent, which has survived earthquakes, wars and Communist regime. The church boasts a 8000 books library, dedicated to theology, byzantine history, music and arts.
Kretzulescu Church (18th century) – Surrounded by Communist-era buidlings, the church survived multiple earthquakes and witnessed the 1989 revolution. The church is built in a local style and preserved some of its original frescoes.
The Cathedral of Saint Joseph (second half of the 19th century) – This is the most famous Catholic church in Bucharest. St Joseph is the metropolitan cathedral and the seat of the archbishop.
