The Probota monastery is located in Probota, near the town Dolhasca in Romania. The Sf Nicolae ("Saint Nicholas") church was included in the UNESCO list of world cultural heritage in 1993 together with other churches in Moldavia.

Even before 1398, a wooden monastery was built with the name "St. Nicholas of the Au" in Probota. It was probably a foundation Roman I Musat (1391-1394) or Ştefan I. (1394-1399). On the banks of Somuz, Stephan the Great built a stone church with three apses. It is believed that the church was destroyed in a flood. Prince Petru Rares, Stefan the Great had a son, 1530 to build the third monastery in Probota. The interior and exterior paintings, fabricated in 1532-1536, were restored between 1996 and 2000. The monastery wall was built in1550 up to sixteen meters high, complete with turrets and battlements. In the church are 21 valuable grave stones that were created between1464-1640..

Das Kloster Probota befindet sich in Probota, nahe der Stadt Dolhasca in Rumänien. Die Klosterkirche Sf Nicolae („Heiliger Nikolaus“) wurde 1993 zusammen mit anderen Kirchen in der Moldau in die Liste des UNESCO-Weltkulturerbes aufgenommen.

Bereits vor 1398 wurde in Probota ein Holzkloster mit dem Namen „Sankt Nikolaus von der Au“ gebaut. Wahrscheinlich war es eine Stiftung Roman I. Musat (1391-1394) oder Ștefan I. (1394-1399). Am Ufer des Somuz baute Stephan der Große eine Steinkirche mit drei Apsen. Man geht davon aus, dass die Kirche bei eine Überschwemmung zerstört wurde. Fürst Petru Rareș, ein Sohn Stefan des Großen, ließ 1530 die dritte Klosteranlage in Probota bauen. Die zwischen 1532 und 1536 gefertigten Innen- und Außenmalereien wurden zwischen 1996 und 2000 restauriert. 1550 wurde die bis zu sech Meter hohe Klostermauer mit Wehrtürmen und Wehrgang errichtet. In der Kirche befinden sich 21 wertvolle Grabsteine, die zwischen 1464 und 1640 geschaffen wurden.

After the catastrophe of the night before, Laici took his car to a car wash where it was cleaned to a condition as if it were new. He was very happy to see how well the workers had cleaned his car, both inside and out.
