Mioveni

The building sits in the centre of the city, practically defining the architectural coat of arms of the city, being one of the most imposing of its kind in the country. In 1992, with only one church in the city of Mioveni, and the number of inhabitants being growing through the development of local industry, the new cathedral was designed to impressive dimensions, being the largest place of worship in the Archdiocese of Argeş and Muscel. The foundation stone of this cathedral was laid on June 29, 1993. After 20 years of efforts by the entire community, the new cathedral in Mioveni was consecrated in the summer of 2012.

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.
