Church of the Dormition of the Theotokos, Komárno

Church of the Dormition of the Theotokos is an Eastern Orthodox church in Komárno in Slovakia. The church is dedicated to the Dormition of the Theotokos. Following the establishment of the Communist rule in Czechoslovakia the jurisdiction over the church was transferred from the Eparchy of Buda of the Serbian Orthodox Church to the Orthodox Church of the Czech Lands and Slovakia which since then administers the site while ″maintaining a fraternal relation with the Serbian Orthodox Church″. The current church building dates back to the 18th century when it was completed in 1770, but an earlier Serbian Orthodox church existed at the same spot from 1511. Church records were kept from the first half of the 18th century. The church has been in its current form since 1851 when the previously burned tower was renovated. In 1905, it was reported to be in very good condition both externally and internally, but it didn't have a permanent priest. After the First World War, the Serbian community in the town was reduced to only a few individuals, so the church remained unused for several decades.
