    This is one of the most important landmarks of the city, not only does it date back to the 15th century but it pertains to Romanian history quite unlike the monuments of the old citadel which are German. Unfortunately, while the church is indeed beautiful with some stunning outside murals it is not very well maintained and this is such a shame. I remember visiting 20 years ago and it was in a far better shape than now. The inside is dimly lit, there is a huge souvenir shop in dissonance with what a place of worship should be and often the place is closed for no apparent reason. Photos even by phone are not allowed, the old murals are in places impossible to see though so not much of a loss. The garden is nice in the summer and well maintained but the personnel are quite grumpy and not fans of tourists.

    An old romanian orthodox church, where you can see old printing machine on which a long time ago Peter Beron typed for first time "Riben bukvar".

    This is a very beautiful Church with an amazing architecture. The entire area is very beautiful and gives you a nice vibe. If you go near it you must go and visit it.

    I wouldn't say the church is a must see. It is definetely nice to look at from the outside and lies in a nice area of Brasov. Due to the normal, partly dirty windows and the two turnt off chandeliers, there is not a nice light inside, you can barely see the (beautiful) paintings that cover walls and ceiling. The big souvenir stand inside is a bit irritating and half of the main room is cordoned, which doesn't add to the atmosphere. The church does have some potential, a couple of lights would make the interior more interesting. Taking photos is strictly prohibited.

    Very beautiful church, and if in the area, in the same court yard there is the first roumanian school which also deserves a visit.

    What a wonderful place, the church and the whole square that takes you there. It's a nice stop on a walk through Brașov. There are also some restaurants around, it's all nicely done.

    A beautiful church in a really wonderful part of Romania. We stumbled across it by accident whilst wondering about on a cold and crisp morning and were very impressed with the fine (and very old) architecture inside. Wonderful paintings inside and very few people about.

    Beautiful church. Everyone passing through Brasov should visit it.

    Very beautiful construction and well preserved. The entrance is free. Right next to the Church is the first romanian school, a museum that you can visit for a small fee. Sometimes you can have a guided tour and learn some things about history. The Church is open until 19 pm each day.

    The Church is grandios and with gothic architecture. Inside, some of the icons are very old and beautifully painted. During the Liturgy the chorus sings very beautifully. Also, in the surrounding premisses there are statues and monuments related to important people from history.

    The architecture of this Orthodox Church is one of the most beautiful in Brașov.

    I would totally recommend going to visit. It's just slightly out of the centre byt it's completely different to any other orthodox church I've seen before.

    Beautiful church! It’s not crowded and the paintings are beautiful. On holidays you can find a lady that sells beautiful flowers in front of the church. I love taking fresh flowers to Saint Mary ♥️
