Church of Saints Peter and Paul in Suwałki, Eastern Orthodox church in Suwałki, Poland.

The Church of Saints Peter and Paul in Suwałki is a brick building with two towers positioned at the front, combining architectural features from both Orthodox and Catholic traditions. The interior layout shows how the structure has been adapted over time to serve different religious practices and communities.

The building was constructed in 1900 as an Orthodox garrison church dedicated to Alexander Nevsky. After Poland regained its independence in 1918, the church came under Catholic administration.

The parish uses the building for weekly services and religious holidays throughout the year, with traces of both Orthodox and Catholic practice visible in its interior. The layers of different faiths that occupied this space remain evident in decorative details and furnishings.

The church is located on Wojska Polskiego Street and welcomes visitors during services and religious celebrations. The building can accommodate large congregations, making it easy to find space during visits.

The exterior was significantly altered during reconstruction in 1958, when the original single tower was replaced with two towers in a new architectural approach. This change marked a visible shift away from the building's first design.
