Anglican Church, Anglican church building in central Bucharest, Romania.
The Church of the Resurrection stands at the intersection of Xenopol and Arthur Verona streets, displaying red brick walls with Neo-Gothic design features. The building shows pointed arches, tall windows, and ornamental details that define its external appearance.
Construction began in 1900 on land granted by the Bucharest authorities to the British Crown, and the building was completed in 1914. The church's establishment marked an important moment for the Anglican presence in the Romanian capital.
The church holds services in English and serves as a gathering place for the Anglican community in Bucharest. Visitors can experience a form of worship that stands apart from the local Orthodox traditions of the city.
The church sits in central Bucharest and is easy to reach on foot, with its corner location making it simple to find. Visitors should know that the interior is mainly accessible during services, so checking hours ahead of time is helpful.
During World War II the church closed and remained under Swiss Embassy protection to stay away from the conflict. It reopened on Christmas Day 1944 with support from British Navy personnel.
