Piatra Neamt

Piatra Neamț occupies the Bistrița River valley in Neamț County, on the eastern side of the Carpathian Mountains. Cozla Hill and the wooded slopes around the city give its streets a distinctly upland setting, while the Bistrița has long shaped local routes and settlement. At the historic centre, the Princely Court of Stephen the Great includes the Church of St John the Baptist and its tall bell tower, a defining late-medieval ensemble. The city also has a museum devoted to Cucuteni culture, associated with one of southeastern Europe’s important prehistoric traditions.
