Всех Святих, Orthodox church in Ruse, Bulgaria
The Church of All Saints is an Orthodox church in Ruse, rebuilt at a new site near the bus stop "Voden" and consecrated on 10 September 2017. Its bell tower stands 23 metres high. The building was constructed between 2007 and 2012, with the floor, heating system and altar still to be completed at that time.
The original structure was built in 1898 but was later demolished, leading the community to construct a new building at a different location. The current church was completed in 2017 following its reconstruction.
The church is named after All Saints and stands on the site of the old Kraynenski cemetery, now Revival Park. The original church held the remains of three Dorostol-Cherven metropolitans, moved to Holy Trinity in 1975. The rebuilt church was consecrated on 10 September 2017.
The rebuilt church stands behind the "Voden" bus stop, not in Revival Park, where the Pantheon of the Revivalists now occupies the original site. Its 23-metre bell tower holds eight bells cast to a design by Igor Konovalov, senior bell-ringer of the Kremlin. The building was consecrated on 10 September 2017.
The church's eight bells were a gift from Russian Patriarch Kirill, cast to a design by Igor Konovalov, senior bell-ringer of the Kremlin. The building was solemnly consecrated on 10 September 2017, five years after the 23-metre bell tower was finished.
