Abstract

The traditional architecture of Pietroşiţa (Dâmboviţa County) – an overview. Attested at the end of the XVIth century, the commune of Pietroşiţa is situated in the northern part of Dâmboviţa County, on Ialomiţa River Valley, upon the old commercial road between Târgovişte and Braşov. The advantageous geographical position of the locality and the ownership of the local landlords over several mountains of the area determined certain prosperity at Pietroşiţa. These landlords raised here, between 1765 and 1767, an elegant church, recently restored and listed today as a historical monument of “Categoria A”. The constant development of the community had the effect of building a large number of estates, having an architecture characteristic for the Carpathian area. Currently, nearly 30 from the commune of Pietroşiţa are registered in the List of Historical Monuments (2016). It is also significant that a large part of the center has been included in the same list, equally as a historic area of “Categoria A”.
