The Glory of High Dečani, Serbian province Kosovo

The Dečani monastic church is the endowment and
mausoleum of Serbian King Stefan Dečanski. The original
founding charter from 1330 has been preserved. The
construction lasted 8 years (1327-1335), and the master
builder was Fra Vita, a Franciscan from Kotor. Stefan
Dečanski died before the construction was completed, and
was buried here. Supervision of the construction works
was continued by his son Dušan. The church interior was
decorated at the same time, including the icons for the
main iconostasis and the church furniture. The wooden
throne of Hegoumenos was made around 1335, and the
carved wooden sarcophagus of King Stefan Dečanski
around 1340.
