Com. Sândominic, Harghita, Sândominic 537275, Romania

About

The church hides older elements, from the reign of the Árpád royal house, as well as Gothic ones. It is important to note that there are still many uncertainties about the history of the construction.

The current church was built at the end of the eighteenth century - the beginning of the nineteenth century, and it was dedicated to Saint Dominic in 1817.

The Madonna sculpture in the church is quite valuable. It was made in the fifteenth
century in the Șumuleu school of sculpture.

The oil painting representing the crowning of Mary dates back to the 16th century. From an iconographic point of view, it is very interesting that the triple image of Jesus, in the posture of priest, king and prophet, appears behind Mary.
