Domnița Bălașa church, Orthodox church in central Bucharest, Romania
The church structure features alternating rows of yellow and red brick forming zigzag patterns alongside large paired windows with stone frames.
The current building, completed in 1885, represents the fourth church on this site after previous structures were damaged by earthquakes and instability.
The interior displays Renaissance Revival oil paintings and contains the remains of Domnița Bălașa, daughter of Prince Constantin Brâncoveanu, in a decorated niche.
Located at 60 Sfinții Apostoli Street, the church measures 29.4 meters in length and varies between 12.3 to 18.4 meters in width.
The church's foundations rest upon oak beams, which have deteriorated over time due to changes in the nearby Dâmbovița River's course.
