Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: NAN-NEW
NEAMTZU (Neamlu) , a town in Rumania, situated among the
lower
  slopes of the Carpathian Mountains, and on the left bank of the river Neamtzu, an affluent of the Moldova. Pop. (1960) 8578, about half being
Jews
 . Neamtzu gives its name to the Department of which
Piatra
  is the
capital
 . Lying 15 m. S. by E. of Faiticheni, the nearest railway station, it has little
trade
 . Near it is the ruined fortress of Neamtzu, constructed early in the 13th
century
  by the Teutonic knights of Andrew II., king of
Hungary
 , in order to repel the incursions of the Cumanians. An hour's drive to the west of the town is the monastery of Neamtzu, founded in the 14th
century
 , and containing two churches and many ancient and interesting
relics
 . Before the secularization of the monastic lands in 1864, it was one of the richest and most important of the Rumanian monasteries. Baltzatesti, ro m. W. by S. of Neamtzu, is locally famous for its
mineral
  springs and baths.
