Church of St. Alexandra, Stanisławowo

The Church of St. Alexandra is an Orthodox parish church in Stanisławowo. It belongs to the Warsaw Deanery of the Diocese of Warsaw and Bielsk of the Polish Orthodox Church.

The first church in Stanisławowo was built between 1844 and 1846 for Orthodox settlers from the Pskov Governorate, who had been brought in the previous decade and settled in Polish villages near the Modlin Fortress, which was being expanded after the November Uprising. The five-domed brick church was designed by Jan Jakub Gay. It remained in use until 1915, when the Orthodox population was evacuated deep into Russia. The abandoned church suffered significant damage during the battles for Modlin Fortress and was dismantled in the interwar period. A new, smaller, and more modest Orthodox church was built on the same site using materials from the demolished structure. The iconostasis and icons from the dismantled St. George's Cathedral in Modlin were placed inside.

During World War II, the church was again severely damaged, and after the war, most local parishioners were forcibly relocated to the Soviet Union. The building was restored for liturgical use in the early 1990s; previously, services had been held in an adapted room in the parish house. In 2016, another renovation was completed, including the construction and gilding of new domes.

The church is located along the main street of Stanisławowo on a spacious plot, which also houses the Orthodox Care Home Betania. The entrance to the church grounds is on the southern side, facing the street. Within the church property, the old gate from the now-vanished perimeter wall has been preserved, along with a row of shrubs leading to the church from the north.
