Antim is a functioning monastery named after its founder, Metroitan Antim Iviryanu. The monastery was built on the site of a wooden church in the years 1713-15. From the end of the 18th century, a school of clergy began to operate at the monastery. In the middle of the 20th century, all the monks were arrested and the monastery itself dismissed. The restoration was carried out in the 60s. thanks to the initiative of the hierarchs of the Romanian church.
