Săpânța-Peri Monastery in Romania! 3️⃣
Founded in 1391, it is located in the picturesque Maramureș region of Romania and it is the tallest wooden church in the world!
The original church was built in the classic Maramureș style, using local wood and time-honored techniques. In the 17th century, the church was expanded and adorned with intricate carvings and religious paintings. However, the most significant transformation came in the 20th century when the old church was carefully dismantled and moved to its current location in the village of Peri to make way for a new monastery complex.
Today it is still active!🥰
