Princely Court in Curtea de Argeș, Medieval royal residence in Curtea de Argeș, Romania.
The Princely Court consists of several buildings, including the Church of Saint Nicholas with preserved medieval frescoes and royal burial tombs.
Built in the 14th century, this complex served as the administrative center and royal residence when Curtea de Argeș was the capital of Wallachia.
The Church of Saint Nicholas contains 21 burial tombs of medieval rulers, including the remains of Vladislav I Vlaicu from 1377.
The site remains open to visitors throughout the year, with guided tours available to explore the medieval architecture and historical artifacts.
Within the church, a rare fresco from 1370 depicts Mary during pregnancy, representing an unusual artistic representation for that period.
