Putna Monastery, Orthodox monastery in Putna, Romania.
The monastery complex includes defense walls, living quarters, a principal church with painted walls, and multiple burial chambers within its stone structure.
Stephen the Great initiated construction in 1466 following his victory at Kilia citadel, completing the monastery in three years with consecration in 1471.
The monastery preserves embroidered textiles from the 14th century, including a silk and gold thread epitaphion created by Serbian nun Euphima.
Putna Monastery maintains regular visiting hours, with guided tours available in multiple languages and special arrangements for religious ceremonies.
The monastery marks the starting point of Via Transilvanica, a long-distance trail stretching across Romania to Drobeta-Turnu Severin.
