Fântânele brings together an archaeological trace from the Migration Period and a church history whose central date is 1777. It is also home to the wooden church of the Fântânele parish, a specifically named camping offer, and nature trails listed as an activity by the operator. This lets you explore the place through different historical topics while also including a specific accommodation option in your plans.

Archaeological History at Dealul Greabănu

The settlement from the Migration Period lies at Dealul Greabănu, northwest of the village, and dates from the 4th century. Its location provides a specific point of reference for the archaeological site, while its date marks an early historical period. For travelers interested in archaeological traces, these two details are particularly useful: they link a named place with a clear historical timeframe. In contrast to the church complex, dated to 1777, this site focuses on a much earlier period in the area's history.

Church Complex and Wooden Church

The “Sf. Arhangheli” church complex in Fântânele, Comuna Mărgăritești, is dated to 1777. Its bell tower is also dated to that year. Fântânele is also home to the “Sf. Arhangheli” wooden church of the Fântânele parish. It was dedicated to both the “Sf. Arhangheli” and “Izvorul Tămăduirii” and was brought from Licoi in 1777. The year thus links two aspects of the church's history: the dating of the complex and its bell tower, and the arrival of the wooden church. The dedications and its origin in Licoi add further specific historical points of reference to the chronology.

Camping and Nature Trails

For camping services, S.C. AVENTURI RURALE CU RULOTA S.R.L. offers pitches at Strada Câlnău Nr. 3 in Fântânele, Comuna Mărgăritești. Caravans, motorhomes, campers, or other approved equipment can be used there temporarily, subject to reservation and availability. The campsite's internal rules apply. If you enquire about a particular vehicle or other approved equipment, it is best to include those details straight away and check availability for your preferred dates in advance.

The operator lists nature trails as an activity. This offer may change, so check with the operator for the latest information before making plans. The two offers have different conditions to consider when planning your trip: pitches are subject to reservation and availability, while the nature trails are subject to the current status of the offer.

Different Historical Focuses

The settlement and the church history offer different historical perspectives to help you choose a focus: the settlement is described by its location northwest of the village and its dating to the 4th century. The church brings together its 1777 date, its two dedications, and its origins in Licoi. You can therefore choose the focus of your stay according to whether you are more interested in archaeological traces or in the history of the wooden church and the complex.
