This monastery has several names.
Some call it Balta Calda Monastery, Others call it the Românești Monastery ,but most of them call it Izvorul lui Miron Monastery.
It is said that in 1910, patriarh Miron Cristea, visited the parishes in these places and amazed by the beauty of the landscape, decided to build here a monastery.
Let me explain something about the names of this Monastery. The Monastery at the foot of the Poiana Rusca Mountains is known by the Banat people as the "Spring of Miron", in memory of its founder, Patriarch Miron Cristea, or "The Hot Balt" due to the thermal water basin inside it. or simply the Romanian Monastery due to the area in which it is located.
As we come in, we encounter a large carved wooden gate and, walking down the alley, we cross a small bridge with a gorgeous view, I do not wonder that Patriarch Miron so much loved this place to make a Monastery.
As soon as we enter, we encounter a beautiful landscape, a garden full of trees and flowers and not only
This monastery is well-known due to the waterlilies basins that offer a beautiful image when these flowers open, but also for the basin so-called "Spring of Healing," in which water is said to never freeze.
This is where the title is found almost in any publication where it says something about this Monastery, namely: Miron's Spring Monastery - a place full of water lilies in which water never freezes.
This is the water spring sanctuary in the form of a basin at the entrance of which we find some mugs with which we can take the water from the pool to drink or put in bottles for home.
And now let's see the Monastery also leaving the beautiful landscape to the arts and discovering something about its structure. The church of the monastery was built of stone and brick in the traditional form of the Byzantine architecture, being the only monastery in Banat that has exterior paintings.
