The monument cross on Țibleș Peak

About

Placed in 2014 on top of Țibleș Peak, at an altitude of 1,839 m, the monument cross guards the border of Maramureș and Bistrița-Năsăud counties, being a tribute to those who, in the past, took refuge in these mountains and also having a protective role for the communities in the area. The five-meter-high monument consists of a cross built of stone blocks, on top of which a bell was placed, both framed by a wooden arch, reminiscent of the famous Maramureș gates.

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.
