Bistrița Monastery and Museum Collection
The monastery is a major medieval ensemble: in 1498 Stephen the Great built the bell tower with a chapel on the north side, next to which Petru Rareș raised a princely house, and in 1554 Alexandru Lăpușneanu entirely rebuilt the Church of the Dormition.
Its religious art collection was established in 1932.
