Rumanian villages comprising peasant households, with ? mostly in Transylvania ? a wooden church towering above each of them and standing high upon a hillock, constitute a most interesting rural settlement. The various occupations of the inhabitants led to the establishment of several types of villages situated amid the varied scenery of our country. The abundance of timber available in the Carpathian regions and in the forests of the North-Danubian plains have offered splendid building material. Necessity and experience enhanced the skill and understanding of deft popular handicraftsmen who built both the dwellings with their outhouses and the churches which, despite their characteristic features, have several traits in common with the buildings in several neighbouring countries (U.S.S.R., Poland, Czechoslovakia and Hungary).

The houses belonging to cattle-breeders and to people working in the woods are situated at long distances from one another. Their pointed, black roofs made of straw or shingles peep out solitarily on all the heights. The household with outhouses stand right in the middle of the plot of land owned by the peasant and are often enclosed like a small wooden fortress designed to defend the cattle and the sheep against the attacks of wild beasts. On the lower ledges of the sub-Carpathian hills, in the lowlands surrounded by mountains and hills or on the Transylvanian table-land, the houses are threaded ."
