St Nicholas Russian Orthodox Church

The St Nicholas Russian Orthodox Church, Wayville had its genesis with the arrival of the first Russians in SA before WW I, but gained momentum with the arrival of Russians, Ukrainians and Belarusians following WW II. From 1950 to 1957, services were held in a hall rented from the Anglican Church in Whitmore Square, but this proved unsuitable for the longer term. The congregation purchased the present site in November 1955, on which a temporary hall was erected. The present church building began in 1961.
