Summary/Abstract: In the north-east of Bucharest, not far from the historical centre «The Ancient court», we can find Silvestru quarter, which is as old as the church dedicated to the holy protection of the Blessed Virgin Mary. At the end of this century and millenium, our church adds to the crown of serving God and the people, its 264-th year. The founders of this holy house of praying for the Orthodox Christians service past centuries master Pârvan and his wife Stanca, wealthy merchants of thick-cloth, chose for the church built by them, the patronage of the Blessed Virgin Mary.
