St. George’s Church in Chișinău (1819)

Tyragetia, serie nouă, vol. I [XVI], nr. 2, Istorie. Muzeologie Chișinău, 2007

The present article offers a history of construction of St. George’s church in Chișinău in 1814-1819 on the basis of archive sources and historiography. From the very beginning this church was connected with many Chișinău figures. The church was erected in the advanced style of the Moldovan medieval churches with the help of Stavrache Costin, a former archpriest of Orhei and the architect Ion Zaiciuc from Bucovina. The architectural constituents of the monument are analyzed on the basis of the planimetric reproduction and visual observations. According to the author, St. George’s church is one of the most important architectural achievements of the 19th century in Chisinau, which developed architectural tradition of the Moldovan principality after the annexation of Bessarabia by the tsarist Russia.
