Mehr zum Buch

A book for travelers or a journey within a book, a guide to the monuments that helps you decipher the iconography and meaning of the murals, the story of the monuments in Bukovina and its surroundings; a work written by specialists for all lovers of heritage and cultural tourism. This could be a brief presentation of what the book "Medieval Monuments of Bukovina" is. In a different type of exposition, the work could be called a more comprehensive guide to the monuments of Bukovina. In the friendly format of a 240-page book divided into 17 chapters, we find information about the Monastery of St. John the New in Suceava, Dragomirna Monastery, the Church in Patrauti, the Church in Parhauti, the Church in Arbore, the Church in Balinesti, Putna Monastery, Sucevita Monastery, Moldovita Monastery, Voronet Monastery, Humor Monastery, Probota Monastery, etc., as well as information about the conservation-restoration process of the monuments in the area. The work is richly illustrated with representative and hard-to-access images (many of which are taken during the conservation-restoration process from the level of scaffolding), with a text rich in information but easy to read.
