History
The construction of the church is said to have been supported by Basarab I, Voivode of Wallachia. An Orthodox church in Lippa was mentioned as early as the time of Louis the Great (King Louis I of Hungary). In 1732, the original 15th century frescoes were restored. In 1785, a new iconostasis was built. It was enlarged in 1792 and rebuilt in Baroque style. Between 1928 and 1930 it was restored with the support of the Minister of Banat Sever Bocu, when it received its stained glass windows.
