Orthodox Church of Remembrance

Local name: Russische Gedächtniskirche

The church was built at the beginning of the 20th century to commemorate Russian soldiers who fought 100 years earlier in the Battle of Leipzig. Their remains were buried in a crypt in the basement of the temple. It is a building modeled on Russian churches from the 17th century, with a tower above the entrance and rich stucco decoration. Inside you can see a modern iconostasis.
