His cell is located in the Făgăraș Mountains, near the Sâmbăta de Sus Monastery. The cell was built by Arsenie Boca during the time he lived and served as a monk at the Sâmbăta de Sus Monastery. It is an important place for pilgrims who come to pray and meditate, and it is considered a sacred place by many of his followers.
