Serbian Orthodox Church of the Holy Prince Lazar, Bournville

Built to serve the Serbian community in Birmingham, this church was completed in 1968 to designs by Dragomir Tadic. It closely resembles another church designed by him in Osijek, which is now in Croatia; the model appears to be a 14th century church in the Serbian city of Krusevac. The association of Serbs with Bournville began in the First World War, when the Cadburys sponsored refugee children from Serbia.
