Шаблон:Infobox church The Church of the Holy Annunciation (Шаблон:Lang-sr; Шаблон:Lang-hr) is a Serbian Orthodox church in Dubrovnik, south Croatia. It was built in 1877.
History
The first demand to built an Orthodox church in the city came when in February 1770 Count Orlov's fleet, on a mission to encourage revolt in Greece, confiscated Dubrovnik's ships which were transporting Ottoman reinforcements near Nafplio.[1] In 1775 it was agreed that Russian Empire will send its consul to Dubrovnik and that he will build an Orthodox chapel in the garden of the Russian consulate.[1]
On April 30, 1867, in the Municipal Assembly, rich trader Božo Bošković bought three houses of baron Frano Gondola with a garden behind them for a sum of 28,500 fiorins inside the Walls of Dubrovnik in the old town.[2]
The church has a valuable collection of icons, some of them dating from the 15th and 16th centuries.[3][4] A comprehensive history of the church and its parish entitled The Serbian Orthodox Church in Dubrovnik to the Twentieth Century was published in Dubrovnik, Belgrade and in Trebinje in 2007.[5][6] The book was published in the Gaj's Latin and the Serbian Cyrillic alphabet[7]
Damage and reconstruction
The church sustained damage from bombing during the Siege of Dubrovnik.[8]
In 2009, the church was restored using funds from the Ministry of Culture of Croatia, City of Dubrovnik, Dubrovnik-Neretva County, private contributions and credit. This was the first restoration of the church.[8]
