Located 10 kilometers west of the city, in a pretty hilly landscape, this monastery was erected in 1402 by Alexandru cel Bun, Prince of Moldavia, and rebuilt by Ștefan cel Mare, who added a tower in 1498. The buildings you'll see date in part from 1554, during the reign of Prince Alexandru Lăpușneanu. The monastery was a well-known cultural center (calligraphy, illumination) where important religious works were written in the Middle Ages. It houses a rich museum of feudal art (icons, books) and the tomb of its founder, Alexander the Good.
