The indigenous religions of European people come in many shapes and forms. In recent years Slavic paganism has grown significantly, mostly in the specific form of Rodnovery. The people practicing their ancestral Slavic religions have started to construct new sanctuaries all over (Eastern) Europe.

Unlike the grandeur of the Greek and Roman temples, these Slavic sanctuaries are humble places in natural surroundings.

If you are interested in Slavic paganism, these are some places constructed in recent years where you can connect with the gods and with like-minded people:
