Oțetari Church, Romanian Orthodox church in central Bucharest, Romania.

The structure features two spires with bulb-shaped roofs, an octagonal main tower, and 39 exterior mosaic medallions decorating its white walls.

Built in 1757 on the site of a wooden church from 1681, the building received extensive restoration between 1860 and 1866 under Metropolitan Nifon Rusailă.

The interior walls display religious paintings created by Gheorghe Tattarescu during the 1860s restoration, depicting scenes from Orthodox Christian traditions.

Located at 4 Oțetari Street in Sector 2, the church maintains regular Orthodox religious services and welcomes visitors throughout the week.

The church measures 24.5 meters in length, 7.5 meters in width, and contains the tombs of the Hagi Tudorache family who supported its restoration.
