Lille, Hauts-de-France France
Russian Orthodox
The church was started in 1925 to serve the Russian diaspora. Until the early 1950s worship was shared with a Greek parish until they had their own place. This church was built in 1936 and it was intended that a parish house be built in front of it. This idea was given up in 1956. Divine Liturgy was first offered in French during the mid-1960s. The parish is now multi-ethnic, including Russians, Ukrainians, Belarusians, and more.
