Orthodox church of St. George in Białystok, Eastern Orthodox church in Nowe Miasto district, Białystok, Poland

The brick Orthodox Church of St. George features five onion-shaped domes covered in gold-plated sheets and includes both upper and lower worship spaces.

The cornerstone was placed by Patriarch Bartholomew I of Constantinople during his visit to Poland on October 15, 1998, marking the beginning of construction.

The interior contains marble altars, frescoes painted by Jarosław Wiszenko, and sculptures that decorate the tsarist gates in traditional Orthodox style.

Located at 36 Kazimierza Pułaskiego Street, the church belongs to the Białystok Deanery under the Diocese of Białystok-Gdańsk of the Polish Orthodox Church.

A khachkar stone monument stands next to the church, commemorating the Armenian genocide of 1915-1917 by the Ottoman Empire.
