Coșula Monastery, Orthodox monastery in Coșula, Romania.

The monastery contains a church building with painted exterior walls displaying traditional Romanian religious art and architectural elements from the 16th century.

The great treasurer Mateiaș established this religious compound in 1535, during a period of significant ecclesiastical development in the Moldavian region.

The monastery walls feature a 500-year-old fresco depicting the scene of Pentecost and the Savior's Cross, representing Romanian Orthodox artistic traditions.

Visitors can reach the monastery by following a 3-kilometer county road from DN 28 B, located 20 kilometers southeast of Botoșani city.

This religious structure stands as the single monastery in Botoșani County that maintains painted exterior walls, incorporating the legendary Yellow Coșula motif.
