Church of St. Trinity

The Church of St. Trinity is an Orthodox church in Budva featuring a striking facade of alternating red and white stone blocks arranged in distinct patterns. The building sits just a short distance from the main cathedral, creating a notable pair of religious structures in the town.

Construction began in 1789 following the departure of Venetian rule and was completed in 1804 as requested by Orthodox residents. This period represents the community's rebuilding of its religious identity after foreign control.

The interior displays an iconostasis painted by Greek artists in the 1800s, showing how the Orthodox community expressed its faith through sacred art. You can see this detailed religious artwork as a living part of how people here continue their spiritual traditions.

The building stands very close to the main cathedral in central Budva, so it is easy to visit both on the same trip. Visitors should wear modest clothing with covered shoulders and legs to show respect for the religious space.

In front of the church stands the grave of Stefan Mitrov Ljubisa, a notable local writer and politician from Budva. This burial place adds a layer of historical memory to the religious site itself.
