Located in central Vilnius on J. Basanavičiaus Street, this impressive Orthodox church was built in 1913 to mark the 300th anniversary of the Romanov dynasty. It is dedicated to Emperor Constantine and St. Michael Maleinos, and was funded by Russian patron I. Kolesnikov. The church blends Neo-Byzantine and Art Nouveau styles, inspired by Rostov and Suzdal architecture.
Thirteen bells were brought from Moscow, and the interior was once adorned with ancient Russian-style frescoes, which have not survived. The church was consecrated on May 9, 1913, with Princess Elizaveta Romanova present. During WWI, it was used as a German detention site. Renovated in the interwar years and registered in Soviet times, the church remains a powerful symbol of Vilnius’ multicultural and religious heritage.
