About: Holy Resurrection Orthodox Church (Berlin, New Hampshire)

The Holy Resurrection Orthodox Church (Russian: Свято-Воскресенская Православная Церковь, tr. Svyato-Voskresenskaya Pravoslavnaya Tserkov) is a historic Eastern Orthodox Church building on Petrograd Street in Berlin, New Hampshire. The church is known locally as "The Russian Church" because it was built in 1915 by immigrants from the Russian Empire who were mostly from the provinces of Grodno, Volyn, and Minsk in modern-day Belarus and Ukraine. The church closed in 1963 but reopened in 1974 for the funeral of a Russian immigrant from modern-day Belarus, named Eugenia (Tarasevich) Tupick. It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1979 and is part of the Orthodox Church in America (OCA).
