Carta is a unique monastery created by the order of the Cistercians as far as 1202 that shows the supremacy of this religious order that spread from France. It combines for the first time romanesque style with early gothic and represents a source of inspiration for later gothic in the area, such as the fortified churches of Prejmer, Harman or Cristian.
