Antim Monastery, Orthodox monastery in Bucharest, Romania

The Antim Monastery complex includes a main church with a trefoil plan, bell tower, chapels, and monastic cells built in Brâncovenesc architectural style.

Metropolitan Anthony of Iveria founded the monastery in 1713 on the site of a wooden church, completing construction and consecration by 1715.

The monastery contains the Synod Library and serves as residence for patriarchal vicar bishops, maintaining strong connections with Romanian Orthodox administration.

Located in central Bucharest near the Patriarchal Cathedral, the monastery opens its doors for religious services and guided visits throughout the year.

The massive oak entrance door features intricate carvings attributed to Metropolitan Anthony himself, displaying exceptional craftsmanship from the early 18th century.
