| Ras, Monastery of Djurdjevi Stupovi | Place | The Church of St. George is situated in Ras near the city of Novi Pazar and in close proximity to the episcopal see of Raška, a suffragan of the Archbishopric of Ohrid. It was built in the years 1170-1171 by the Serbian Grand Župan Stefan Nemanja (reigned 1166/68-1196) as a combination of Byzantine and Latin spatial composition and construction, and as such belongs to the so-called Raška school of architecture. It was fresco decorated in 1975. The church is designed as a single nave edifice divided into three parts: the three-part altar space, the central bay and the narthex. Above the central part of the building is a dome with elliptical base, which is rather unusual, and decorated inside with arcades on free-standing colonettes. The entrances with vestibules on the lateral sides of the bay under the dome were created as a new solution. It has bell towers on its Western side (Spis sv Save 60-61; Kralj Stefan 5, Domentijan 16-17). (BĐ ŽSN., 23 - s(ve)ty m(u)č(e)niče H(ri)stovь Geōr'gije). |
