New St. George's Church, Romanian Orthodox church in central Bucharest, Romania

The church features square narthex architecture, elevated domes above the nave, and detailed religious murals representing Orthodox Christian traditions.

Prince Constantin Brancoveanu ordered the construction of this church in 1705, replacing an older structure with foundations dating to the 15th century.

The wooden iconostasis contains intricate floral decorations and holds sacred relics of Saint Nicholas and Saint George for Orthodox worship.

The church stands at the intersection of Lipscani Street and Bratianu Boulevard, near multiple historical landmarks in downtown Bucharest.

The remains of Prince Brancoveanu, executed by Ottoman forces in 1714, rest within the church following his canonization as a saint.
