St. Elizabeth's Church Wiesbaden, Russian Orthodox church in Nordost district, Wiesbaden, Germany

Saint Elizabeth's Church is a Russian Orthodox church of light sandstone on the Neroberg in Wiesbaden, built on a square plan with an apse. Five fire-gilded onion domes with vertical ribs crown the building, the central lantern tower taller and wider than the four corner towers. The main portal is framed by paired columns under a semicircular arch, and round reliefs of grey sandstone sit above the windows.

Duke Adolf of Nassau had the church built from 1847 to 1855 as a burial church for his wife, Grand Duchess Elizabeth Mikhailovna, who died in childbirth in 1845. Architect Philipp Hoffmann studied Russian church design for the project, and the church was consecrated on 25 May 1855. A permanent congregation formed only in the 1920s with Russian émigrés.

The building is named after Saint Elizabeth, venerated in Orthodox tradition, and served as a place of worship for Russian visitors seeking spiritual comfort far from home. Services follow the Byzantine rite, with hymns sung without instrumental accompaniment echoing through the sanctuary.

The building is reachable by bus lines 1, 3, and 33, which stop at nearby stations throughout the week. Visitors should note that photography is not permitted during services and women traditionally cover their heads.

The church appears on two German postage stamps, issued on 4 June 1991 and 12 August 2003. The south entrance, once reserved for the princely family, was permanently closed after the fall of Tsar Nicholas II in 1917; until then, worshippers leaving by it saw the panorama of Wiesbaden.
