Saint Spyridon Church

The Orthodox community in Trieste was established in 1748 but it was not until 1751 when Empress Maria Theresa allowed the free exercise of religion for Orthodox Christians. This prompted the immigration of Serbian traders from Herceg Novi, Trebinje and Sarajevo to Trieste. The first Eastern Orthodox Church was built in the mid-18th century and it served as a place of worship for both local Serbs and Greeks. It was thanks to Damaskinos Omiros, a well-traveled Greek monk from Mount Athos who went to Vienna to consult with the empress in person, that the wheels were set in motion.
