Cyricus and Julitta Church, Orthodox church in Bankya, Bulgaria.

The church building displays traditional Eastern Orthodox architectural elements with a prominent bell tower and cross-topped dome at its center point.

The Cyricus and Julitta Church, constructed in 1932, received its consecration from Metropolitan Stefan of Sofia during a period of religious revival.

The church name honors two Christian martyrs, Cyricus and his mother Julitta, who were executed in Tarsus around 304 CE for their religious beliefs.

Visitors can attend regular services and participate in the annual celebration of Saints Cyricus and Julitta feast day on July 15.

The church serves as a focal point for the Goreshlyatsi festivities, a local tradition occurring between July 15 and July 17 each summer.
