Tips

Andrea und Huskys 🐺

August 11, 2024

Ovidenia is the old name of the holiday in the Orthodox calendar on November 21, which corresponds to the Entry of the Mother of God into the Church. The main Orthodox church of Bistrița is dedicated to this day. The building was originally the church of the Minorite Monastery of "St. Andrei", also called the Crown Church, which dates back to the 13th century. It is a hall church with cross vaults and pointed arches, representative of the early Transylvanian Gothic of Cistercian origin. The church was bought by the United Romanian Parish (Greek Catholic) in 1895. In 1948, with the proscription of the United Romanian Church by the communist regime, the entire complex (church and monastery) was handed over to the Romanian Orthodox Church.

The interior of this church is worth a detour. The Orthodox never take half measures in terms of religious art.
