Church of the Dormition in Łódź, Eastern Orthodox church in Bałuty-Doły, Łódź, Poland.

The red brick church features multiple domes, tall windows, and an ornate entrance with traditional Eastern Orthodox architectural elements throughout the structure.

The church construction, completed in 1884, followed an assassination attempt on Tsar Alexander II and received support from local industrialists Karl Scheibler and Juliusz Heinzl.

The interior contains a large iconostasis displaying Byzantine and Russian artistic influences, along with stained glass windows created by Adolf Seiler's workshop from Wrocław.

Visitors need to contact the parish priest in advance to arrange access to the church, which has space for 900 people during services.

The church preserves its original color scheme and decorative gilding through recent restoration work, maintaining the authenticity of its 19th-century appearance.
