Protestant church of Saints Peter and Paul in Karlovy Vary, Orthodox church in Karlovy Vary, Czech Republic.

The church features five golden cupolas atop a Greek cross floor plan, with ornamental murals decorating the interior walls and ceilings throughout the structure.

Construction of the church took place between 1893 and 1898 under architect Gustav Wiedermann, replacing a previous Orthodox chapel that stood at this location.

Serbian and Russian nobility provided financial support for the construction, demonstrating the strong connections between Eastern European Orthodox communities in the region.

The church welcomes visitors daily from 9:00 AM to 6:00 PM, with access available through Bus Number 4 to the Krále Jiřího stop.

The wooden majolica iconostasis inside the church, featuring oil icons by painter Tyurin, was originally created for the 1900 World Exhibition in Paris.
