Celic Dere, Orthodox monastery in Tulcea County, Romania
The Celic Dere Monastery stands among scattered buildings in a valley, featuring a main church, a museum, and a traditional windmill in its courtyard.
Founded between 1841 and 1844 by Archimandrite Athanasie Lisavenco, the monastery underwent reconstruction after destruction during the Crimean War in the 1850s.
The monastery museum displays collections of old Romanian books and religious artifacts in the former workshop space used for painting and carpet weaving.
Regular bus services connect the monastery directly with Tulcea city, making it accessible for visitors traveling 28 kilometers from the regional center.
The monastery houses two notable religious artifacts: a self-cleaning icon of Jesus Christ and the fire-resistant icon of Virgin Mary Nerosaiskaia.
