| Brodarevo, Davidovica Monastery, Church of Epiphany | Place | The Church of Epiphany in the Davidovica Monastery is situated on the river Lim near Brodarevo. It was built by Župan Dmitar as monk David, the son of Vukan Nemanjić (the Grand Prince of Zeta) and brother of the Grand Prince Stefan, who built the Monastery of Morača Monastery (Kancelarski i notarski spisi, 1278-1301, 65-66; LjS ZiH., I, 119 (43) - Prěstavi se rabь Boži Dimitrije a zovomь Bratko). The builders and artisans of the church came from Dubrovnik, Desina de Risa with his son Vlaho (as stated in the written documents still preserved), who incorporated Romano-Gothic elements into this church. It is a single nave edifice with three bays and a semicircular apse. Above the central bay is a dome, and above the side chapels are two more. The narthex was added later. Fragments of fresco decoration have remained. | ||
| Morača Monastery, Church of the Dormition of the Holy Mother of God | Place | The Monastery of Morača is situated in the valley of the river Morača in the Municipality of Kolašin in Montenegro. It was built by Stefan, the son of Vukan Nemanjić (the Grand Prince of Zeta) and grandson of Stefan Nemanja (ZN 17). The katholikon is dedicated to the Dormition of the Holy Mother of God. It is a single-nave edifice with three bays, narthex and a dome. It has a side chapel dedicated to St. Stephen. All major elements of the Monastery of Žiča and the Patriarchate of Peć have merged into this edifice. The main portal is in Romanesque style. The fresco decoration of the 13th century has been poorly preserved (the majority of the decoration was ruined, when the monastery was ravaged by the Ottomans in the 16th century). The church was renovated in the 20th century. |
