Orthodox Church of the Annunciation of the Most Holy Mother of God in Riga: photos, reviews

About

Vissvētās Dievmātes Pasludināšanas pareizticīgo baznīca in Riga is an enchanting neoclassical masterpiece designed by Theodor Gottfried Schulz, opening its doors in 1818. This impressive Russian Orthodox church, highly rated at 4.9 on Google, stands majestically in the Moscow outskirts. Originally constructed from wood and reconstructed over four years from 1814, it offers a spiritual experience that's well worth a visit.

The church is uniquely divided into three parts, each with its own dedicated altar. The central altar honors the Annunciation of the Holy Virgin, while the right altar is dedicated to St. Nicholas the Wonderworker and St. Sergius of Radonezh. With a rich history, the church was initially named after St. Nicholas before acquiring its current title. As a notable attraction in the city, it invites both devotees and visitors to delve into its serene and historic ambiance.
