Saints Peter and Paul Church, Orthodox memorial church in Prokhorovka, Russia.

The Memorial Church of Saints Peter and Paul features a white exterior with traditional Orthodox architecture and an elevated bell tower reaching toward the sky.

The church, built in 1995, stands near the location of the significant 1943 tank battle of Prokhorovka during World War II on the Eastern Front.

The walls of this Orthodox church display inscriptions with names of 7,000 Soviet soldiers who died defending their homeland during the Prokhorovka battle.

Visitors can reach the church by taking the regional road from Belgorod to Prokhorovka, with parking available on the church grounds.

The church merges religious functions with memorial purposes, preserving the memory of fallen soldiers while maintaining active Orthodox worship services.
