From Business Review-
Located in the centre of Bucharest, this year, the
Church of the Resurrection will celebrate one hundred years of the existence of the Church Building.
Work commenced on the building in 1913 due to the generosity and help of a dedicated Anglican community, including Queen Marie of Romania, without whose influence and drive it is possible that it would not have been constructed when it was. Prior to 1913 there had been a flourishing church but it was decided that a more permanent place of worship was required. Through the generosity of a local British business man the site was given to the British Government for the use of the Church and the construction of the Church building.
Work commenced, and the Church situate near Gradina Icoanei is now a land mark and Romanian monument as well as a building of architectural interest. The glazed brick building being the only one of its type in Bucharest, it brings students every year to study the uniqueness of its blend of British and Romanian styles.
