Tapu Fortified Church

On a hill of the Zekesh highlands stands the church of Țapu. The oval curtain wall, but also the river stone masonry speak for an edification before the time of firearms. According to the Gothic sculpture, the church was built around 1400. The ring wall, which is still over six meters high, bears traces of a two-story battlement. On the inside, you can see embrasures and holes for the beams that supported the battlement.
