Holy Sunday Church
The Holy Sunday Church (Св. Недела) is positioned on the left side of Bitola's northern entrance, in close proximity to the Holy Sunday cemetery. This church, constructed in 1863, takes the form of a three-naved basilica and features a central octagonal dome. Inside, an intricately crafted wooden iconostasis graces the space, showcasing predominantly modern icons. Similar to other churches in Bitola, local guilds played a significant role in its construction, and in 1864, the church's dome was adorned with vibrant paintings. Subsequently, another layer of artwork was added towards the late nineteenth century, although it has suffered considerable damage over time. Within the churchyard of Holy Sunday lies the Ilinden cemeteries, serving as the final resting place for Macedonian insurgents from the Ottoman era, including Komitas Dimko Nikolov and Aleksandar Turundzhev.
