Prince Constantin Brâncoveanu founded the monastery. The infobox gives groundbreaking in 1693 and completion in 1697, while the text says it was founded in 1690. The article names no architect and no materials. The infobox gives the location as Romanii de Sus, and the text says the town of Horezu, in Vâlcea County, in Wallachia.
The article calls it a masterpiece of the Brâncovenesc style, noted for its architectural purity and balance, with rich sculpted detail and carefully treated religious compositions. That style is not in this atlas's fixed list, so the style field is left empty. The church measures 105 feet (32 m) long and has a maximum height of 46 feet (14 m).
The article mentions votive portraits and painted decorative works. UNESCO inscribed the monastery in 1993, in the 17th session, under criterion ii. The infobox lists it as an active nunnery. The article gives no visitor information.
