The wooden church "Saint Nicholas" from Boiereni

The wooden church "The Holy Archangels Michael and Gabriel" in Hoteni was erected in 1790 in the village of Slatina in today's Ukraine, being moved to Hoteni after 1895. In 1942, the narthex of the rectangular building was extended to the west. The sanctuary has a double-skinned roof and an open turret tower, finished with a square-based coif. *Photo credit: CJCPCT „Liviu Borlan” Maramureș, Rada Pavel

A place of worship which was declared a historical monument, this wooden church dedicated to the birth of the Virgin Mary in Hărnicești was dendrochronologically dated around 1679, having a rectangular layout and a multi-storey roof on the sides. Its proportions make it unusual, given that the roof measures ten meters and the tower only nine. Outside, the church is surrounded by a carved belt, while only a few fragments of the interior painting survive. *Photo credit:  CJCPCT „Liviu Borlan” Maramureș, Rada Pavel

There are several opinions on the history of the wooden church dedicated to "Saint Nicholas", located in the center of Glod. According to some, it was built around 1700, other opinions placing the building of the church around 1784. The place with Moldavian influences keeps in the altar fragments of the mural painting that is supposed to be the work of the painter Ianoș Opriș. In the patrimony of the church there are extremely valuable icons on wood and glass, crosses, furniture and books. *Photo credit: CJCPCT „Liviu Borlan” Maramureș, Timur Chiș

The wooden church "Saint Nicholas" from Ferești dates from 1798, being built of oak beams. Although its interior is dimly lit, the space surprises with the vivid colors of the paintings that decorate the walls, which went through a restoration process in the first half of the 19th century. *Photo credit: CJCPCT „Liviu Borlan” Maramureș, Rada Pavel

Erected in 1760, the wooden church "Saint Nicholas" from Budești Susani is atypical due to its proportions, its narthex being expanded in the 19th century. At the same time, according to the inscriptions on the church doors, the iconostasis is older than the building itself, dating back to 1628. The holy doors preserve paintings in which the influence of Moldovan art can be found. *Photo credit: CJCPCT „Liviu Borlan” Maramureș, Karin Lachner

Erected in 1699 in Vişeul de Jos, the "Pious Paraschiva" wooden church was offered to the people living in Botiza in 1899. The building is a good example of a classic Maramureș church, the roof having a double skirt. Also, the door frame at the entrance is decorated similar to the Maramureș gates, while the rope carved in wood surrounds the church.

Some sources say about the "Saint Nicholas" wooden church from Bogdan Vodă that it was erected in 1718, on the site of the old church burned by the Tartars, while others mention the year 1754. It is notable for its position, being located in the middle of the village, within the cemetery, and not on the hills, as most of the churches in Maramureș. Another essential feature of the historic monument is its simplicity, the only decorative element of the exterior walls being the carved twisted rope, which surrounds the entire building.  *Photo credit: CJCPCT „Liviu Borlan” Maramureș, Timur Chiș

This area is extremely famous among the people of Maramureș and not only, due to an optical illusion that makes a slope look like a ramp. Countless tourists stop here to test the laws of physics, where it would seem that the car climbs the hill by itself and the water flows upwards. Although it is definitely an optical illusion, as evidenced by the measurements made on the field, the area remains a sightseeing spot, which arouses the curiosity of visitors.

Almost three centuries old, the Jewish cemetery in Ieud is a testament to the history of the Jews in these places, where both the graves of ordinary people and prominent representatives of the Jewish community are located. The cemetery surprises with its shape, size and ornamentation of tombstones, which are decorated with motifs such as: lion, bear, deer, bird, griffin, menorah, tree of life, hands of blessing, Torah or crown. This objective has a special historical and ethnographic value, being among the most famous attractions of the township.
