Church of Emperor Saints Constantine and Elena in Chisinau - 240th Anniversary

Blog article
On June 3, 2017, the Post of Moldova issued a prepaid postcard (the third of its kind this year) dedicated to the 240th anniversary of the Saints Constantine and Helena Church ("Biserica Sf. Împăraţi Constantin şi Elena") in Chişinău. This card, with its First Day cancellation from Chişinău (MD-2012), shows a side view of this small church (same view on the pre-printed stamp) located on a hill in the northern part of the Moldovan capital (Râşcani sector)! The card (domestic rate for sending a simple postcard, L 1.30) was designed by Lilian Iaţco and printed in only 1,000 copies. . Read more..
