Holy Trinity church in Belgrade, Russian Orthodox church in Tašmajdan Park, Belgrade, Serbia
The Holy Trinity Church displays architecture inspired by the Pskov style and combines traditional Russian building forms. Its interior features an elaborately carved wooden iconostasis that is typical of Russian Orthodox church design.
It was founded in 1924 by Russian refugees who came to Serbia fleeing the Russian Civil War and its aftermath. The consecration in 1925 marked a turning point for the displaced community establishing itself in the city.
The church serves as a gathering place for Belgrade's Russian Orthodox community and shapes the park's character with its distinctive appearance. Visitors can observe the religious practices and community role of a diaspora congregation in everyday life.
Entry is from Tašmajdan Park and the building sits close to St. Mark's Church. Visitors should wear respectful clothing and follow religious protocols before entering the building.
The Kursk Root Icon, a significant Orthodox relic, was held in this church from 1925 to 1944. It held deep meaning for many Russian believers as a symbol of hope during their displacement.
