2915 ROMANIA (Mehedinţi) - Saint Ana Monastery

Located on the Danube Defile, in Orşova, on the crest of Moşului Hill, a place that offers an unique landscape, Saint Ana Monastery was founded by Pamfil Şeicaru, the greatest Romanian journalist between the two world wars, who fought here as a lieutenant in the WWI. He wanted to express his gratitude to God, because he survived after it had been buried here by a bomb explosion. For the facts of his courage, Pamfil Şeicaru was granted the title Knight of the Order of  Mihai Viteazul.

2518 ROMANIA (Mehedinţi) - The Tower of the Severin Citadel

Located in western Oltenia, on the left bank of the  Danube, below the Iron Gates, Drobeta-Turnu Severin has had a troubled history, because of its strategic position, at the crossing of land and water roads which led to the north and south of the Danube. Called Drobeta by the Romans, it was the third urban center of Dacia after Sarmizegetusa and Apullum. Destroyed by Huns in the 5th century, it was rebuilt by Justinian I (527-565).
