Mavrogheni Church, Orthodox church building in northern Bucharest, Romania.

The Mavrogheni Church features a cross-shaped structure with an octagonal dome above the nave and curved narthex ceiling on three sides.

Prince Nicholas Mavrogenes and his wife Maria constructed the church between 1786 and 1787 as gratitude for their daughter's recovery from illness.

The church interior contains paintings from 1971-1973, including a zodiac representation in the choir area and baroque-style icons in the restored iconostasis.

Located at 4 Monetăriei Street in Bucharest's first sector, the church maintains regular services and welcomes visitors throughout the week.

The church originally functioned as a monastery connected to Panagia Ekatontapiliani in Paros, Greece, with substantial land endowments and facilities.
