The fire took place on April 18, 1930, during a religious service on Good Friday, when hundreds of people from the Orthodox community gathered at the wooden church in the town, built in the eighteenth century.[2] The church was no more than 48 square meters and so children, singers and some elders gathered in the narthex while parents listened to service from outside.[3] The fire broke out during Lamentations, from a candle that reached a wreath braid. The fire was extinguished immediately, but without anyone even noticing, the wreaths housed in the church attic were also ignited. The church door, with an opening width of only 60 centimetres, was locked, trapping inside 130 people.[4] Within a few minutes, dozens of people died from smoke inhalation or burns. The shingle roof also collapsed, crushing to death many still trapped in the church.[5] Only 14 people managed to escape, of which two died a few days later from burns.[6] After the fire, the Synod of the Romanian Orthodox Church, at the initiative of Patriarch Miron Cristea, launched a national public offertory, supported by newspaper Universul, headed at that time by Stelian Popescu. From all over the country, but also abroad, from Europe and the United States, tons of aid arrived to the families of those killed. At the funeral of 116 victims Queen Marie and her grandson, King Michael I were in attendance.[7] Shortly after the tragedy, several parents of those killed committed suicide, feeling guilty for the death of children.[1] Between 1932 and 1934, a new cathedral was built on the site. {{Quotation|Parents rushed to the door, trying to get in, to save their children. They were pushing to enter, children were struggling to get out and failed, because of their parents, that blocked their exit. That scrimmage kept them captive, prey to the flames. They all died, 116 children, all youth of the village.|Virgil Ionescu, the last survivor of Costești tragedy in an interview for Adevărul, November 2009}}References1. ^1 {{cite web |url=http://adevarul.ro/news/eveniment/tragedia-copiilor-arsi-biserica-marturiile-ultimului-supravietuitor-1_50acf7287c42d5a6638cbeec/index.html |title=Tragedia copiilor arși în biserică: mărturiile ultimului supraviețuitor |work=Adevărul |date=25 November 2009 |language=Romanian}} {{DEFAULTSORT:1930 Costesti wooden church fire}}2. ^{{cite web |url=http://ziarullumina.ro/actualitate-religioasa/pomenirea-copiilor-morti-incendiul-din-1930 |title=Pomenirea copiilor morți în incendiul din 1930 |work=Ziarul Lumina |last=Bostan |first=Cristian |date=28 April 2011 |language=Romanian}} 3. ^{{cite web |url=http://adevarul.ro/locale/pitesti/pastele-indoliat-1930-povestea-celor-116-credinciosi-ars-vii-intr-o-biserica-arges-vinerea-mare-regina-maria-luat-parte-funeralii-1_55255b62448e03c0fd5f31d2/index.html#gallery_currentImage |title=Paștele negru din 1930: povestea celor 116 credincioși care au ars de vii într-o biserică din Argeș, în Vinerea Mare.
