Antim Monastery is a Romanian Orthodox architectural gem in Bucharest, built between 1713 and 1715 by Metropolitan Antim Ivireanul. The complex is a masterpiece of the Brâncovenesc style, blending Byzantine motifs with Western baroque flourishes. Highlights include ornate stone portals and oak doors designed by Antim himself. In the 1980s, the church was famously saved from demolition by being moved 29 metres on rail tracks.
