  • Cover photo description:
  • CârÅ£a Monastery is a former Cistercian (Benedictine) monastery in the Å¢ara FăgăraÅŸului region in southern Transylvania in Romania, currently a Lutheran Evangelical church belonging to the local Saxon community. It lies on the left bank of the Olt River, between the cities of Sibiu and FăgăraÅŸ, close to the villages of CârÅ£a (German Kerz, Hungarian: Kerc) and CârÈ›iÈ™oara (German: Kleinkerz). The monastery was probably founded in 1202-1206 by monks from IgriÈ™ abbey (daughter house of Pontigny abbey), and was disbanded in 1494, when the apostolic legate Ursus of Ursinis ratified CârÅ£a Abbey’s attachment to the Provostship nullius of Sibiu. The Cistercian monastery introduced and helped develop French Gothic art in the region.
