CURTEA DE ARGES, ROMANIA - Dormition of Theotokos cathedral/ КУРТЯ-ДЕ-АРДЖЕШ, РУМЫНИЯ - Успенский собор

            The Dormition of Theotokos cathedral in Curtea de Arges is, perhaps, the most architectural symbol of Romania, the was St. Basil cathedral in Moscow is for Russia, Taj Mahal is for India, or the Eiffel Tower is for France.  It was built in early XVI century by Neagoe I, a prince of the Romanian principality of Walachia, in Curtea de Arges, its Medieval capital.  For historical context, the cathedral was built when Henry VIII ruled England and Hernan Cortes conquered Mexico for Spain.  Prince Neagoe was buried inside, along with several other princes of Walachia and several members of Romania's royal family.

Успенский собор в Куртя-де-Арджеш является, пожалуй, архитектурным символом Румынии, - роль, которую играют например собор Василия Блаженного для России, Тадж-Махал для Индии, или Эйфелева башня для Франции.  Собор был построен в начале XVI века Нягое I, господарем румынского княжества Валахия, в средневековой столице этого государства Куртя-де-Арджеш.  Для исторического контекста, собор был построен когда испанцы завоевали Мексику а в Москве царствовал Василий III, за три года до рождения Ивана Грозного.  Сам господарь Нягое был захоронен внутри, вместе с несколькими другими валашскими князьями и членами королевской семьи современной Румынии.
