St. Silvester Church, Orthodox church in Moșilor district, Bucharest, Romania
The stone church stretches 30 meters in length and 13.5 meters in width, featuring twin spires above the narthex and a central dome over the nave.
The initial church was constructed before 1743 by Župan Pârvu and his wife Stanca, with subsequent reconstructions following earthquakes in 1802 and 1838.
The interior displays painted columns with floral patterns, gilt capitals, and enameled tile stoves decorated with religious motifs throughout the space.
The church maintains regular religious services at 36 Silvestru Street, with access to both the main building and its separate bell tower from 1879.
In 2002, the church received sacred relics of Saint Sylvester as a gift from the Vatican, presented by Patriarch Teoctist.
