	Galata
		The Venetians settled in Galata, but, as a result of the support given by Venice to the Byzantine Emperor in his fight against the Normans, they moved to Constantinople and Galata became the residence of Genoese merchants.
		Because the Genoese central government was rather weak, Galata rulers often took sides in the continuous fights among Byzantines, Serbs, Ottomans, Bulgarians, which responded to their immediate advantage, rather than to the policies of their distant motherland.
		The Genoese influence in Galata gradually diminished, especially when in the XVIth century the Genoese fleet, led by the Admiral Andrea Doria, supported the Emperor Charles V in his fight against the Ottoman bases in northern Africa (capture of Tunis, 1535).

		The Galata Monastery, a witness of many centuries of Orthodox history and spirituality, guards the city of Iasi like a fiery prayer of the right faith and like a remarkable monument of Romanian culture.
		Surrounded by a strong wall with an imposing bell tower, the church of the Galata Monastery is an exceptional architectural achievement, novel for that period, a fruit of the synthesis between dominating Moldavian traditional elements and the influences of a Byzantine-Muntenia origin.
		Thus, the massivity of the church is compensated by the narrowness of the towers, by the cubic stability of the palace and by the verticality of the belfry tower.
