Saint Sava Serbian Orthodox Church, Serbian Orthodox church in Cabbagetown, Toronto, Canada
Saint Sava is a Serbian Orthodox church in Cabbagetown featuring a single nave and a semicircular altar at its east end. A round dome rises above the western side of the structure.
The church was founded in 1953 when its cornerstone was laid by Bishop Dionisije Milivojević. The construction marked an important moment for Toronto's growing Serbian Orthodox community.
The church preserves Serbian traditions through its choir and a folklore group that regularly performs traditional Serbian dances. These groups are run by community members and shape the cultural life of Toronto's Serbian Orthodox population.
Services take place on Sunday mornings at 10 AM, while Saturday and holiday services begin at 9 AM. Visitors should expect traditional liturgical practices and crowded conditions on weekends.
During the 1955 consecration, a high-ranking visitor presented a hand-crafted religious icon as a gift to the congregation. This religious artwork remains an important piece of the church's collection and documents this special moment in the community's history.
