Valea Mare-Mateias

As I've already mentioned in the previous episode near Câmpulung city is a masterpiece of human sacrifice in the monumental esemble at Valea Mare-Mateias called Mateias Mausoleum. At the end of the year 1916 when the Roumanian Army strongly opposed to the invading troops, in the Carpathians, one of the hard fights were held in the Muscel zone. The heroic deeds of the Roumanian soldiers were payed with many sacrifices. Soldiers from Muscel and many others will rest in peace in the holy land that they defended with their life price, in this historic place where they shed their blood so that everybody can honour them as we did when we saw their story written on the walls of the mausoleum. The land around the monument was leveled, spaces for festivities, two exhibition halls, a bas-relief were made. A promising land as a standforward proof of the beauties who are to come; the Rucar Bran pass, Brasov and so on...
