Kretzulescu Church is a historic Eastern Orthodox church located in central Bucharest, Romania. Built between 1720 and 1722, it exemplifies the Brâncovenesc style, characterized by its intricate stone carvings and red brick facade. The church was commissioned by the boyar Iordache Kretzulescu and his wife Safta, a princess from the Cantacuzino family. Despite suffering damage during the 1940 earthquake and World War II bombings, it has been meticulously restored and remains a significant architectural and cultural landmark.
