MONASTERY CETĂŢUIA
It sits atop a wooded hill to the south of the town. The view from here is breathtaking. Built during the reign of Prince Gheorghe Duca, between 1669 and 1672, the monastery is a precious architectural landmark that has remained virtually unchanged since its construction. The church, with its slender silhouette, contains remarkable interior frescoes in the post-Byzantine style, dating from the 17th century. It is surrounded by a large surrounding wall and includes numerous outbuildings, including a palace reserved for princes, who could take refuge here.
