Description

“At the end of a drive lined with walnut trees stands Sf. Arhangheli, a Greco-Catholic church. […] An inscription tells us it was built in 1766. Its steeple alone measures over 162 feet (52 m) high and until recently it was the tallest wooden church in Europe (it has been superceded by Peri Monastery in Sapanta).” - National Geographic’s Traveler Romania
