Vormsi Orthodox Church
German: Worms
The red-brick Orthodox Church of the Resurrection in Hullo, Vormsi, was finished in 1889 in the shape of a Latin cross and consecrated on 29 July 1890, with a parish house and school beside it. Its congregation, founded in 1886, was unique: services were held mostly in Swedish, as it was the only Swedish-speaking Orthodox congregation in Estonia, with some services also in Estonian and Church Slavonic. After the Soviet closure the church was used as a store, and it now stands in ruins; a society was founded in 2009 to restore it.

Eesti keeles
Vormsil Hullo külas asuv punastest tellistest ladina risti kujuline õigeusu Issanda Ülestõusmise kirik valmis 1889. aastal ja pühitseti 29. juulil 1890, kõrval kogudusemaja kirikukooliga. 1886. aastal asutatud kogudus oli ainulaadne: teenistused peeti enamasti rootsi keeles, sest see oli Eesti ainus rootsikeelne õigeusu kogudus; osa teenistusi peeti ka eesti ja kirikuslaavi keeles. Pärast sulgemist Nõukogude ajal kasutati kirikut laona ja nüüd on see varemeis; 2009. aastal loodi selle taastamiseks MTÜ.
