Cașin Church

Cașin Church is an Orthodox church building in northern Bucharest featuring Romanian Revival style elements including marble facades, mosaic decorations, and bronze reliefs. A large dome rises above the main structure as its most prominent feature.

Construction started in 1935 under architect Dimitrie Ionescu-Berechet with government support from the Ministry of Agriculture. Interior decorative elements were completed over several decades afterward.

The church displays traditional Orthodox artistic forms through its decorations and religious images. Visitors can observe how local Orthodox communities gather here for their spiritual practices and celebrations.

The building is open for religious services and community events, though visitor facilities are limited for sightseeing purposes. Guests should follow standard dress codes and behavioral expectations for Orthodox religious spaces.

The dome received a bright green paint coating during 2008 renovations, creating an unexpected color choice that makes the building stand out in the city's landscape. This vibrant shade contrasts sharply with the building's traditional architectural details.
