🎧 Listen to Introduction
These eight churches are outstanding examples of a range of architectural solutions from different periods and regions. They demonstrate the diversity of design and craftsmanship employed in these narrow, tall wooden buildings, with their distinctive tall, slender bell towers located at the western end of the buildings, with single or double roofs covered with wooden tiles. As such, they are a unique vernacular expression of the cultural landscape of northern Romania’s mountainous regions.
