Russian orthodox church of Biarritz, Eastern Orthodox church building in Biarritz, France.

The brick church features traditional Eastern Orthodox architectural elements with multiple domes rising above Avenue de l'Impératrice in Biarritz.

Built in 1890 and consecrated in 1892, the church served Russian aristocrats who settled in Biarritz before the Russian Revolution of 1917.

The church continues its role as a center for Orthodox worship, maintaining Russian religious traditions through regular services and ceremonies.

Located at 8 Avenue de l'Impératrice, the church received historical monument status in 2016 and remains open for religious services and visits.

The building combines Byzantine Revival architecture with French construction techniques, creating a distinct presence along the Atlantic coast.
