Bucharest Bărăția Church, Roman Catholic church in central Bucharest, Romania.

The Bărăția Church stands 35 meters high on Ion C. Brătianu Boulevard, featuring a bell tower and Romanesque Revival architectural elements throughout its structure.

Franciscan monks established the original wooden church in 1314 for Italian merchants, while the current stone structure dates from 1848 following the great fire of Bucharest.

The church provides religious services in multiple languages, including Hungarian and German, serving the Catholic communities of different nationalities in Bucharest.

Located at Strada Bărăției 27 in Sector 3, the church holds three masses on weekdays and six masses on Sundays for its diverse congregation.

Emperor Franz Joseph I of Austria personally financed the casting of the church's main bell in 1855, demonstrating international support for this religious institution.
