Szentendre - Blagovescenska Church

On the Danube side of Fo tér towers the beautiful Serbian Orthodox Blagovescenska church which was built in 1752/54 according to plans by Andreas Mayerhoffer (1690-1771) and is dedicated to the Annunciation.

The façade of the church is formed by lisières which lead along the narrow entrance hall out over the main ledge to the helm roof of the integrated façade tower. Focal point of the simple entrance side is the doorway with a Baroque curved balcony above it. On the fresco above the side entrance is the expansive representation of Emperor Constantine and his mother Helena with the cross of Christ. The iconostasis within the church is the work of the Serbian artist Michael Zéivkovicé.
