Church of the Holy Saviour, Orthodox church in Nesebar, Bulgaria.

The Church of the Holy Saviour measures 11.7 meters in length and 5.7 meters in width, featuring a single-nave structure with an apse.

Built in 1609 with funds from a wealthy Nesebar citizen during Metropolitan Kipriyan's time, as confirmed by the donor inscription above the south entrance.

The walls display extensive frescoes depicting scenes from the Gospel and images of saints, including the Madonna with Child in the apse section.

The church maintains regular opening hours throughout the day and stands as an active religious site within the northern section of Old Nesebar.

The building once housed the tombstone of Byzantine Princess Mataisa Kantakuzina Paleologina from 1441, which now resides in the Archaeological Museum.
