Description This is a shot from Suceava's citadel. Not a very fancy one, a small one... but a citadel that was never conquered. It was build over 500 years ago and was extended by some other succesor liders of Petru Musat. It was the main point of resistance of Moldavian country.
It endured very powerful sieges in 1476, 1485 and 1497 but it was never conquered. I will probably post a more representative picture with it.


Here is a panoramic shot of the citadel: [link]

Beautiful. I love the lighting in this one. In spite of dealing with stone this photograph is very warm.

I wish that too... especially because they wanted to restore the fortress but they don't know how to build it. The plans are lost and they restored the walls as much they knew how the walls were...but now they can not build anymore. And yeah.... the walls are REALLY impressive... they are at least 2 meters thick that means at leas 6 feet. When I saw the I was really amazed. In future I will post a photo with the whole fortress (I must combine two photos to the that... cause the fortress is pretty wide for my lens)
The white line represents the line above they could restore the walls (what is above that line is restoration work)...
