Abstract

On religious tourist movement. Case study on Nucet Monastery, Dâmboviţa County. One of the most important religious pilgrimages, with a remarkable dynamics from year to year, is the one that takes place at Nucet Monastery, in Dâmboviţa County. More precisely, the pilgrimage to Crucea de Leac (the Healing Cross), located in close proximity to the monastery, on the Life-giving Spring. The monastery dates back to the early sixteenth century and its foundation is attributed to boyar Gherghina Pârcălab, one of Prince Radu the Handsome’s uncles. Throughout time, it has undergone many transformations. In 1940, it was abandoned and it was re-established as monastery in 1994. The study aimed to highlight the profile of the high number of pilgrims attending this event - reaching several thousands and increasing every year - and to issue some recommendations on how to increase its attractiveness and economic impact. In this regard, I prepared a questionnaire for 119 subjects who participated in the pilgrimage on the Life-giving Spring, celebrated on the 6th of May 2016. The results of this survey, the conclusions I have drawn and the recommendations I have issued are the subject of this material.
