Slobozia Church, Eastern Orthodox church in central Bucharest, Romania

Located at the intersection of Dimitrie Cantemir and Marășești Boulevards, Slobozia Church features a rectangular plan with rounded extensions and classical architectural elements.

The construction began in 1664 under Radu Leon, near a stone cross commemorating his father Leon Tomșa's military victory against Aga Matei's forces in 1631.

The church integrates Western artistic influences with Romanian traditions through its interior murals, reflecting the evolution of ecclesiastical art during the 19th century.

The building maintains regular operating hours and welcomes visitors to explore its historical architecture, with appropriate dress code required for entering the premises.

During the construction of Bucharest Metro in 1986, workers filled a tunnel with sand to prevent further damage after the church altar developed cracks.
