The Serb Orthodox Church, Timisoara (must see)

The Serb Orthodox Church is located in the Fabric district, Timisoara. It was built between 1745 and 1755, in Romanesque style. The church’s building was made of brick, and forms a visible cross both on the exterior and the interior. The walls within the church were painted by talented artists; in some of the paintings, one can observe the Byzantine-Serbian style. The church also boasts a collection of 100 religious books written in Slavic and even Greek, which date back to the 18th-19th centuries.
