Monastery "Holy Marry"

Tall, slim, with two sharpen domes, the church  of monastery "Holy Marry" from Techirghiol resort, guard on the lakeside with the same name.

It was build in the XVII^th century from ancient common oaks, carved by the old people from Mures Valley. The sleepers from common oaks fixed joined in pegs and surrounded by an median twisted cornice give a authenticity note to whole building. Worm picture, naive, kept its freshness still after three renewals. The images, showing saints figures (like St. Christopher with dog head), Adam and Eve with the snake, Savior's Sorrows, have a distinct expression. The altar screen is very well proportioned to the size of church, and imperial doors have more refined paintings in medallions, in Old-Romanic style.

In the courtyard there is Saint Martyr Pantelimon's draw well, realized by the sculptor Ion Jalea, and brought here from Bucuresti.
