St. Mary's Church

Historical Site

Church and cultural heritage monument of Albania

The St. Mary's Church is an Orthodox church and monastery in Elbasan, Albania. Built during Ottoman times in the Vlach neighbourhood, it became a Cultural Monument of Albania in 1963. In the 1990s, the church became the seat of a split faction of the Orthodox Autocephalous Church of Albania under At Nikolle Marku, which criticizes the Greek influence over the Orthodox in Albania.
