Annunciation Church, Sibiu, Orthodox church in central Sibiu, Romania.
The Annunciation Church features a western spire rising 40 meters high, divided into three distinct levels with detailed architectural elements throughout the structure.
Built between 1788 and 1789 through funding from Stana Hagi Petru Luca, the church required complete reconstruction after an earthquake damaged it in October 1802.
The church interior displays oil paintings of three founders above the entrance and contains an iconostasis created by artist Mișu Popp from Brașov.
The cemetery behind the church contains numerous graves of notable 19th-century figures, including Ioan Piuariu-Molnar, Vasile Aaron, and Vasile Moga.
In March 1856, following Bishop Andrei Șaguna's directive, the remains of the church founders were placed beneath the altar in a special burial ceremony.
