Introducing Curtea de Argeş

Curtea de Argeş was a princely seat in the 14th century after the capital of Wallachia was moved here from Câmpulung Muscel. The town’s church is considered to be the oldest monument preserved in its original form in Wallachia, while the monastery (or Episcopal cathedral), sculpted from white stone, is unique for its chocolate-box architecture and the royal tombs it hides.
