Catedrala Mitropolitana din Craiova

(Romanian: Catedrala Sfantului Dumitru) Cathedral of St Demetrius, Craiovais a Romanian Orthodox cathedral, see of the Metropolis of Oltenia. It is located at 14 Matei Basarab Street, Craiova, Romania, in the historic region of Oltenia. There was likely a church on the site by the 1490s, renovated in 1651 and, having fallen into disrepair, demolished in 1889. That year, work on a new church began, and this was completed and sanctified in 1933. The earlier church's close proximity to the headquarters of the Ban of Craiova gave it importance in the city's political life, as well as a defensive purpose, while the modern building's role ensures its continued significance. https://www.catedralasfantuldumitrucraiova.rohttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cathedral_of_Saint_Demetrius,_Craiovahttps://mitropoliaolteniei.ro/
