Coltului Monastery, raised sometime between the late l4th century and theearly l5th century lies very close to theriverandthe highway.The church standsout through two particular elements:firstly, through the location of the towerover thealtarand secondlythroughthe remains of theinside frescoes.
In the village, you can see one of the newly restored churches ofHateg.Its steeple has preserved its initial l5th century shape and beneath it, inthe tympanon of the entrance to the nave, there is the most remarkabletestimony of frescoes in the same perimeter. Ostrov also stands out through itsoriginal cemetery fence. Originally, it was made up of nearly 300 Roman stonesof alltypes,arrangedin a genuine uniqueprotoexhibit.
Ostrov
Densus is only twokilometers away. Its name will always be linked to oneof theRomanian churches turned into a myth. Hardly when you are in front of it doall the stories seem true: a surprising architectonic plane, minutely achieved,with an extravagant ingeniousness and fantasy, which could only have beendisplayed by a widely traveled and experienced, but extremely spontaneouscraftsman. Densus must have been built in the 13th century, probably growinginto a small family monastery in the l5th century. The church is one of thosemonuments about which you can always discover something new andwonderful.
Snpetru is situated about half-way between Ru de Mori and SntamarieOrlea. The Romanian church there, which goes back to the l4-15th centuries,has two noteworthy portals. Its Western faade looks like a small exhibit ofreusedRomanpieces.
The parish church was built in the late 13th century. Itsinterior was painted around 1311,displaying some of the most beautifulfrescoes in Southern Transylvania.In the 15th century, more frescoes of a clearEastern origin were added to its altar. This interior mix makes the church inSntamarie one of the most original medieval monuments in the whole ofTransylvania, where the Catholic and the Orthodox denominations have
coexisted in a surprising synthesis. What is important is still the fact that in1447,the locality was donated to the Cndea family in Ru de Mori, whoseproperty it was up to the modern epoch. At the moment, the church is one ofthevery fewProtestantchurches in theHa eg Country.
