The '''Horezu Monastery''' or '''Hurezi Monastery''' was founded in 1690 by Prince [[Constantin Brâncoveanu]] in the town of [[Horezu]], [[Wallachia]], [[Romania]]. It is considered to be a masterpiece of "[[Brâncovenesc style]]", known for its [[architectural]] purity and balance, the richness of its sculpted detail, its treatment of religious compositions, its votive portraits, and its painted decorative works.

{{Quote|The Brâncovenesc style, which can be found at several other churches and monasteries in Wallachia, is the only true and original Romanian style and is called "Brancoveanu art" by the name of the ruler who, in a period of constant battles between the world powers of that time, put cultural development of the country above everything and made it the goal of his life.|<ref>[http://www.welcome2romania.ro/en/unique-attractions/horezu-monastery.htm Horezu monastery - remarkable example of pure Romanian "Brancoveanu art". Welcome to Romania]</ref>}}

The monastery has been inscribed by [[UNESCO]] on its list of [[World Heritage Sites]].<ref>{{cite web |url=https://whc.unesco.org/en/list/597|title=Monastery of Horezu|publisher=[[UNESCO]]}}</ref>

The '''wooden churches of Maramureș''' in the [[Maramureș (historical region)|Maramureș region]] of northern [[Transylvania]] are a group of almost one hundred [[Romanian Orthodox Church|Orthodox]] churches, and occasionally [[Romanian Church United with Rome, Greek-Catholic|Greek-Catholic]] ones, of different [[architectural]] solutions from different periods and areas. The Maramureș churches are high timber constructions with characteristic tall, slim [[bell towers]] at the western end of the building. They are a particular [[Vernacular architecture|vernacular]] expression of the [[cultural]] landscape of this mountainous area of northern [[Romania]].

Maramureș is one of the better-known regions of Romania, with autonomous traditions since the [[Middle Ages]]. Its well-preserved wooden villages and churches, its traditional lifestyle, and the local colourful dresses still in use make Maramureș as near to a living museum as can be found in Europe.

The wooden churches of the region that still stand were built starting from the 17th century all the way to 19th century. Some were erected on the place of older churches. They were a response to the prohibition against the erection of stone Orthodox churches by the Catholic [[Austria-Hungary|Austro-Hungarian]] authorities. The churches are made of thick logs, some are quite small and dark inside but several of them have impressive measures. They are painted with rather "naïve" Biblical scenes, mostly by local painters. The most characteristic features are the tall tower above the entrance and the massive roof that seems to dwarf the main body of the church.

Eight were listed by the [[UNESCO]] as [[World Heritage Site]]s in 1999, for their religious architecture and [[timber construction]] traditions. These are: [[Church of the Presentation of the Virgin in the Temple in Bârsana|Bârsana]], [[Budești Josani church|Budești]], [[Saint Parascheva Church, Desești|Desești]], [[Ieud Hill Church|Ieud]], [[Church of the Archangels Michael and Gabriel, Plopiș|Plopiș]], [[Saint Parascheva Church, Poienile Izei|Poienile Izei]], [[Church of the Holy Archangels, Rogoz|Rogoz]], [[Church of the Archangels Michael and Gabriel, Șurdești|Șurdești]].<ref name = whs>{{cite web|url=https://whc.unesco.org/en/list/904|title= Wooden Churches of Maramureş|work=UNESCO World Heritage Convention|access-date=2023-09-03}}</ref>

==Description==

[[Image:Sârbi Susani.portal.1995.jpg|thumb|250px|The portal from [[Sârbi Susani church]] (1639)]]

The historical Romanian region of Maramureș, partitioned between Romania and [[Zakarpattia Oblast|Sub-Carpathian Ruthenia]] after [[World War I]], is one of the places where traditional log building was not interrupted and where a rich heritage in wood survives. The tradition of building wooden churches in central and southern Maramureș can be traced from the beginning of the 16th century to the [[Turn of the century|turn of]]{{clarify|date=December 2018}} the 18th century. Since the knowledge used to build the local wooden churches circulated throughout [[Europe]], their understanding is of high interest far outside the region.

In Maramureș today almost 100 wooden churches still stand, about one third of their total two [[Century|centuries]] ago. Besides the extant wooden churches, a major source of knowledge is still saved by a number of practicing senior carpenters with relevant knowledge and skills in traditional carpentry.

From the Middle Ages until the turn of{{clarify|date=December 2018}} the 18th century the skills, knowledge and experience to build ample log structures with plane and well sealed walls, as well as with flush joints, were performances out of the ordinary. The craftsmen from Maramureș who were able to reach such levels were not simple peasants but well specialised church [[Carpentry|carpenters]] who inherited and maintained this advanced knowledge to exclusively build houses of worship.

Since the local tradition to erect wooden churches depended on those who built and used them, it is fundamental to identify the local builders and founders. The earlier blurred distinction between them veiled their separate roles in shaping the wooden churches and hindered us from a clear understanding of the results.

[[File:Bârsana Monastery in 2023 April.jpg|thumb|250px|{{ill|Bârsana Monastery|ro|Mănăstirea Bârsana}} Complex]]

The extant wooden churches from Maramureș reveal the existence during the 17th and 18th centuries of at least two main family schools of church carpenters. There are further distinguishable three main itineraries and numerous smaller ones, indicating the work of some of the most important church carpenters ever active in the region and in some cases even shifts among generations. In general, the church carpenters stood for the technical performances, the high quality of the wood work and the artistic refinement.

In a long perspective, the true creators of the local wooden churches were actually the commissioning founders. Especially the role of the noble founders of [[Eastern Orthodox Church|Eastern Christian rite]] was decisive in the formation of a regional character among the local wooden churches. The wooden churches from Maramureș closely mirror the local society of modest country landlords, manifesting themselves along several centuries in their double condition of Eastern Christians and Western nobles.

The wooden churches from Maramureș open necessary connections with similar performances throughout Europe. Seemingly the local distinction made between sacred and profane rooms was characteristic for many other rural regions on the continent. The highest knowledge in log building seems to have had a sacred purpose with wide continental circulation and therefore in many places requires distinction from the more regionally rooted vernacular one.<ref name="Babos"/>

The publication in a journal from 1866 of several drawings representing a wooden church from [[Seini]], situated in the neighbouring [[Szatmár County]], produced echoes in Europe, being compared with the already famous [[Stave church#Norway|Norwegian stave churches]].<ref name="Babos">{{cite thesis|first=Alexandru|last=Baboș|title=Tracing a Sacred Building Tradition. Wooden Churches, Carpenters and Founders in Maramureș until the Turn of the 18th Century|publisher=[[Lund University]]|year=2004|url=http://lup.lub.lu.se/record/21535}}</ref>{{rp|12}}

With the resurgence of church construction after the [[Romanian Revolution|Romanian Revolution of 1989]], there are new churches built in the traditional style.

==Wooden churches==
The list shows extant wooden churches in '''bold''' and also includes some known vanished ones. For those now in [[Ukraine]], [[Romanian language|Romanian]] and [[Hungarian language|Hungarian]] names of Ukrainian villages are given in (parentheses). In Romanian, ''Susani'' denotes "high-dwellers" and ''Josani'' "lower-dwellers". Thus the names distinguish the churches of those large villages which had more than one.
