Înălțarea Sfintei Cruci I


Ascension of the Cross Romanian Orthodox Church and Cemetery.



Beautifully terraced gravesites in the cemetery.


Children's graves on the northern side of the cemetery.



This little country church built in 1912 is a favourite stop whenever I'm in the area.




On this visit I was lucky enough to get a few shots of the interior through the windows.

  2. Looks like a great setting. I'm sure you would have liked to be able to get inside.

    1. I always want to see inside but seldom get the chance. I have a few phone numbers for caretakers of the churches in the district...maybe one day our schedules will align.
