Banu Church, Romanian Orthodox church in Iași, Romania.
The Banu Church exhibits Baroque architecture with a trefoil plan, featuring stucco ornaments around large windows and a bell tower above the narthex.
Originally constructed in wood by boyar Savin Zmucilă in 1705, the church underwent reconstruction in stone under Metropolitan Iacob Stamati's direction in 1802.
The church interior contains a gilded iconostasis carved from linden wood, accompanied by Renaissance mural paintings in warm colors throughout the space.
Located at Strada Banu 9 in Iași, the church welcomes visitors from 8:00 AM to 4:00 PM and maintains contact through telephone number +40 232 216 250.
This church established a precedent by conducting services in Romanian instead of Old Church Slavonic or Greek, which set it apart from other local churches.
