Monastery Dragomirna was built in 1602 and impress by the cotrast of the massive walls and the lace of he stone tower. A variety of ornaments, decorations and arhitecture. A very fine monument of art and deserve it to be seen.
This is the second best monastery in the region (in my opinion) after Sucevita. It is quite big, populated with nouns, looking like a small fortress with a beautiful church in the middle. The church is exterior fully painted with superb religious icons and inside is hard to be describable. Amazing paintings, an incredible altar: sculptured wood golden plated, definitely a must see. Also visit (Sucevita, Voronet, Moldovita, Putna).
when i visited it , the church was in process of renovation, but it was still very interesting. it has very high walls like a castle. from outside you do not know what it is: is it a church, is it a castle!
Reeds in 1992 logeerden we met onze hele familie vier dagen in dit klooster. We maakten prachtige wandelingen en genoten van de herder bij het meer die zo prachtig op zijn fluit speelde. In 2012 logeerden we hier weer een nacht. De herder was verdwenen, maar het bijwonen van de Metten was een openbaring. Nu hebben we opnieuw het klooster bekeken en het is nog steeds heel erg de moeite waard.
Монастырь был центром книжной культуры. Сохранившийся собор Сошествия Св.Духа самый высокий их молдавских триконхов. Место само по себе очень красивой и романтичное.
Beautiful surroundings - water, forest, quiet places. Plenty of parking place, beautiful and impressive walls.
Monastero stupendo, tenuto benissimo come tutti gli altri monasteri della zona! Consigliato portarsi un buon gps perché non è facilissimo da trovare!
Dragomirna is one of my favorite of the monasteries in Bucovina. With its castle-like fortress setting and lake, it is truly impressive. Friends of ours married here in 1992 in a gorgeous ceremony. Twenty-two years and two kids later, their marriage is as strong as Dragomirna's walls. Definitely go!
This monastery is a bit different from the Bucovina monasteries with very high walls and a tall church. It is a beautiful place and if you are lucky you will have it to your self to visit.
When we arrived at the monastery I could not believe my eyes , I felt like I left the real world and entered a fairy tale . Dragomirna is not as famous as the other monasteries in Bucovina but for me is the most beautiful . I don't have words to describe it but you can see for yourself pictures on the website http://www.dragomirna.ro/home.html
