Slatina monastery, Religious monument in Slatina, Romania.
The Slatina Monastery features four defensive bastions at its corners and walls constructed from river stones with rock reinforcements for protection.
Alexandru Lapusneanu established the monastery in 1558, making it the largest religious building in Moldova until the late eighteenth century.
The monastery contains a church dedicated to the Transfiguration of the Lord, reflecting traditional Romanian Orthodox architectural and spiritual elements.
The religious complex stands 30 kilometers from Falticeni, with two entrance doors positioned on the northern and southern facades of the main church.
The monastery compound forms an irregular quadrangle with a bell tower housing two large bells from 1830 and separate living quarters for nuns.
