At 35 km south of Piatra Neamt and 8 km west of Borlesti, on the valley of the Nechit river, in a natural setting of a picturesque landscape, the old monastic settlement of Nechit Monastery rises, whose obsession penetrates, according to tradition, to the past dating from the 14th century.
In the first decades of the nineteenth century the Jesuit life around the Nechit Sketch began to die out, barely blinking through the weariness of the three monks who remained here. There followed a period of ruin and oblivion, until 1864 when a wall church was built around the old wooden one, a stone bell and a few cells, representing the flame of the monastic life in this ancient fireplace.
The new history of the Nechit Monastery is closely linked to the efforts of Father Zenovie Ghidescu, worthy descendant of the monks who were in need in these places, coming here as a star, for the first time, in 1948. In 1960, the Nechit Shrine had once again become the once-prosperous settlement, but its abusive abolition, decided by the atheist authorities of the time, made the desert here instead of prayers to God.
Father Zenovie is named a parish priest in several places, but since the reopening of the sketch was obtained in 1972, it does not contain to watch him, contributing to his restoration, even before returning as a star at Nechit.
Between 1976-1979 the entire large church is restored, with the dedication "Change to the Face" and a paraclis "St. Mucenici Zenovie and Zenovia", which are painted by the monastery Viorica Cretu from the Prislop Monastery, in 1979 -1982. In 1990 the initial edifice is increased by an addition, where the painting was executed by the painter Mihai Chiuariu between 1991-1992.
Between 1998-2001 the construction of the new bell tower was completed, which guards the main access road in the monastery and which also houses a paraclis with the "Saint Emperor Constantine and Elena" dedication, offering to the living and the pilgrims passing here, another place of prayer and spiritual retreat.
