Religious Heritage

The Soroca District preserves a significant collection of Moldovan religious architecture, ranging from the 19th-century neoclassical Catedrala Adormirea Maicii Domnului to rare wooden churches in Tătărăuca Veche and Holoșnița. This selection includes the Cosăuți Monastery, rebuilt in the 1990s near ancient stone quarries, and various village churches dedicated to Saint Nicholas and the Archangels. These sites reflect the region's long-standing Orthodox traditions and the distinctive use of local stone and timber in ecclesiastical construction.
