Wooden Orthodox Church of St. The Church of the Holy Archangels Michael and Gabriel in Târgușor from the 17th century is located in the municipality of Sânmartin, Cluj district, province (judeţul) Cluj. Located on the slope of a small hill, surrounded by a cemetery. The church is on the new list of monuments under the code LMI CJ-II-m-B-07779.

The interior contains historical carved decor, and the barrel vault is decorated with a keystone made of a carved beam. Few traces of paintings on the vault of the nave and in the altar have been preserved. At the beginning of the 20th century, a layer of canvas was pasted over an old painting, on which scenes inspired by the Bible were recreated. The external walls were plastered and painted in a salmon color, which caused the building to lose its historic character. The damaged shingles were replaced several years ago with new ones. Currently, there is no liturgy in the facility.
