This work is in the public domain in its country of origin and other countries and areas where the copyright term is the author's life plus 70 years or fewer. You must also include a United States public domain tag to indicate why this work is in the public domain in the United States.  Note that a few countries have copyright terms longer than 70 years: Mexico has 100 years, Jamaica has 95 years, Colombia has 80 years, and Guatemala and Samoa have 75 years.

Per [1], copyright protection in Romania expires 70 years after the death of the original author (who is defined as the creator or designer). The lack of Freedom of Panorama (FOP) is no longer relevant for states with no formal FOP since the author's works are now copyright free. The church depicted in this image was built in the Middle Ages, and it can be reasonably assumed the creator or designer of the church died centuries ago.
