The Heroes of 1916-1919 Monument |
 Built in memory of the almost 14,000 Romanian soldiers who were killed on the frontlines in Oituz, Coşna, and Cireşoaia, during World War I (1916-1918), this monument at the top of Mount Magura is indeed impressive. What distinguishes this monument from the rest in the country is both its architecture and its location at an altitude of 520 meters (1,706 feet). The construction of this monument started in 1925, under the rule of King Ferdinand and Queen Maria, and ended in 1928, under the rule of King Mihai.

Corporal Constantin Muşat (Made Sergeant Posthumously) – a legendary hero from World War I 1916-1918
 In the tough battles of the August-December 1916 campaign in Predeal, Oltului Valley , and in the Vrancea mountains the border guard soldier Constantin Muşat, from the 2 nd Border Guard Regiment, was always leading the troops out of the trenches during attacks. He sustained minor wounds in his first battles, and refused multiple times to be evacuated from the front. On December 16, 1916 during a grueling battle next to Soveja, he was hit by shrapnel and this scorching sliver of steel sliced into his left arm. He woke up later in a field hospital bed with his left arm amputated from the shoulder. |
