The Church of Saints Peter and Paul in Tepljuh (Biočić) is Serbian Orthodox church in Croatia. The church was built in 1887 at the site of an older church building and consecrated by bishop Stefan Knežević of the Eparchy of Dalmatia in the same year on May 17th.[2] The reconstruction of the church building was initiated in 2016 by diaspora from the village of Biočić.[3] The church belongs to a relatively small number of Serbian Orthodox church buildings with bell towers constructed like a turret divided into floors.[4]
