Crkva sv. Đorđa i parohova kuća
Današnja pravoslavna crkva sv. Đorđa sagrađena je na mjestu ranije crkve iz 19. stoljeća koja je stradala u Domovinskom ratu, a sam Metković centar je parohije od sredine 19. stoljeća. Nova crkva, sagrađena početkom 21. stoljeća, betonska je građevina križnog tlocrta, unutrašnjost je predsvođena bačvastim svodom, a središnji dio kupolom, čime slijedi tradiciju bizantske sakralne arhitekture. U crkvenom se dvorištu nalazi i groblje za pravoslavne vjernike koje čine i pojedini kameni nadgrobni spomenici u obliku križa iz 19. i s početka 20. stoljeća. Uz crkvu se nalazi i kuća metkovskog paroha koja slijedi oblike tradicijske arhitekture.
St. George Church and Rector’s House
Today’s orthodox church of St. George was built at the place of an earlier church from the 19th century that was damaged in the Homeland War; Metković was the centre of the parish from the mid-19th century. The new church, built at the beginning of the 21st century, is a concrete cross-shaped structure; its interior is overarched by a barrel vault, while the central part is overarched by a dome, following the tradition of the Byzantine sacral architecture. In the churchyard, there is also the cemetery for the orthodox believers comprised of individual stone monuments in the shape of a cross from the 19th and the early 20th century. Along the church, there is also the house of the Metković rector following the shapes of the traditional architecture.
