Rudi Monastery, Eastern Orthodox monastery in Rudi, Moldova
The Holy Trinity Church of Rudi Monastery features white stone walls, traditional religious architecture, and an elongated central dome rising above the main structure.
Established in 1777 under Gregory Alexandru Ghica's governance, the monastery received financial support from Donicul, a merchant from Movilau, following the Bishop of Hus's blessing.
The monastery maintains Eastern Orthodox traditions through daily religious services, providing a spiritual center for the local community and preserving Moldovan religious customs.
Located 200 kilometers north of Chisinau, the monastery requires modest clothing for entry and offers guided tours of the grounds and church interior.
Near the monastery, visitors can explore a 100-meter-long natural cave containing prehistoric artifacts and two ancient fortresses from the 9th-12th centuries.
