The wooden church "The Holy Archangels Michael and Gabriel" in Ulmeni dates from 1720, being rebuilt on its current site in 1895.

The iconostasis and the holy doors surprise by the beauty of the paintings, which are believed to have been done by an Italian painter.

The bell tower was initially taller, but was rebuilt following a storm, and currently measures 22.3 m. The interior painting was made in the 19th century, being attributed by some to the painter Ștefan of Sișești.

Erected around 1699 in Gârdani, the wooden church "The Holy Archangels Michael and Gabriel" was relocated to Arduzel about 70 years later. Although the edifice has a small turret, it stands out through the base of the coif which is visibly extended over the pavilion. Unfortunately, the painting on the interior walls is almost completely degraded.

Habra Monastery is located on the border of Groşi township and is dedicated to the "Resurrection of the Lord". Documented for the first time in 1604, the monastery closed its doors a decade later due to the support that the Romanian clergy gave to the ruler Michael the Brave (Mihai Viteazul). After centuries of believers perpetuating the legends born around the monastery, in 1990 the custom of Easter pilgrimage was resumed on the site of the former settlement, and then it was decided to rebuild the monastery. The architecture of the edifice was inspired by the model of Cozia Monastery, but with more modest dimensions.
