Archdiocesan church of Feleacu, Romanian Orthodox church on Feleac Hill, Romania.

The stone church displays Gothic architecture with ribbed vaults, a hall-type building design, and painted interiors adorned with numerous religious icons.

Built between 1486 and 1488, the church served as an episcopal seat for Northern Transylvania Romanians from 1481 to 1538.

An iconography workshop operated at the church during the 18th century, with painter Nistor creating multiple religious artworks between 1760 and 1765.

The church plans to transform into a museum, with staff available for inquiries in French and Romanian at telephone number 0040-268-477-286.

Archaeological excavations in 2011 revealed 18 graves beneath the church, including a tomb from 1300 and coins dating to the 13th century.
