The huge wooden spoon from Mioveni, holder of a record approved in the Guinness Book of World Records, measures 17.79 m in length and 1.50 m in the widest point (length of the ladle with arms) and was made in 14 days to the popular craftsman Ion Rodoș and his son, Gheorghe Rodoș, being a true work of art, adorned with traditional folk motifs and the logo of the city of Mioveni. Ion Rodoș is from Nucșoara, Argeș County and in the world of unsurpassed folk craftsmen he is known as "the man who taught wood to fly". The spoon was made of wood from two linden trees, the first 100-year-old specimen, with a diameter of 78 cm, was used to make the ladle, and the second tree was used for the spoon's tail. The project was completed between 22 May and 5 June 2013. In order to reduce the risk of wood damage, the spoon was moved to the courtyard of the Ethnographic Museum "Constantin I. Nastase". There, the spoon was mounted on a special support built for it, provided with a roof.

Certified as one of the oldest village settlements on the Argeşel River, the church was built in the shape of a cross, with a single tower, in 1786, by Archimandrite Daniil, abbot of Râncaciov Monastery, and Master Dumitraşcu Brăteanu, from Racoviţa, to the vievode Nicolae Mavrogheni (1786-1790), first as a metoh of this monastery. Repairs and additions were made to this church in time, around 1877, by the boyar Grigore Racoviceanu, its interior was repainted, almost entirely, by Gheorghe Stănescu, who is stepped in the nave, and the door made of thick oak planks, between the porch and the narthex, it bore the marks of blows for a long time, because the settlement served as a shelter for the local boyars against the attacks of the Turks, until they raised their butts to a stone's throw.
