Catedrala Mitropolitana Sfantul Dumitru

The Metropolitan Cathedral of Saint Demetrius, seat of the Metropolis of Oltenia, stands on the site of a princely church recorded from the late 15th century. The present Byzantine Revival building was begun in 1889 to plans by architect André Lecomte du Noüy and consecrated in 1933. Its bell tower is built of Roman bricks, probably from Pelendava; every October, on the feast day, a torchlit procession sets out from here through the city.
