The Orthodox Church of the Holy Annunciation was built in 1964, but closed in 1967 and was then used to house the Tirana Sports Club. Services resumed in 1990. The Orthodox Church of Albania first became autocephalous in 1937 and again in 1992.

  The title of the church is not "the Holy Evangelist", but "the Evangelism" i.e. "the Annunciation" (of the Angel to Virgin Mary). The Greek word "Evangelismos" means "Annunciation".
