The first document mentioning Corbii de Piatra monastery is dated June 23, 1512, although the monastery is believed to have replaced a much older settlement.
The cave church has two altars for two patron saints, typical of the Byzantine world of the 10th century. It’s situated in Arges county, southern Romania.
