Colțea Church

Housed in a palace built in 1834, has collections related to the development of Bucharest from a small 14th-century fortress into Romania’s capital.

Dating from the 18th century, houses the tombs of princes Constantin Brâncoveanu and Ion Mavrocordat.

A part of the city's historical heart was not demolished by Nicolae Ceaușescu. The area (stretching approximately between the Dâmbovița river to the south, Calea Victoriei to the west, Calea Moșilor to the east and the Regina Elisabeta boulevard to the north) contains an assortment of middle 19th-century buildings, ruins of the Wallachian princes' medieval court, churches, bank headquarters, a few hotels, clubs, restaurants and shops. Narrow cobblestoned streets retain the names of the ancient guilds that resided on them. The area was mostly renovated and is now a place of gathering for the young generation of the city.

Built in the early 18th century, has some stunning decorative sculpture and amazing frescoes. A little jewel.
