Žiča (Serbian Cyrillic: Жича) is a Serb Orthodox monastery near Kraljevo, Serbia, located at [show location on an interactive map] 43°41′47″N 20°38′45″E / 43.6963, 20.645739. The monastery, together with the Church of the Holy Dormition, was built by the first King of Serbia, Stefan the First-Crowned. It was destroyed by the end of 13th century, but was rebuilt by King Stefan Milutin at the beginning of the 14th century. Žiča was by tradition royal church of Serbian kings, and although king could be crowned in any Serbian church, he was never considered true king until he was anointed in Žiča.

The foundation of the Serbian King Stefan Nemanjic, the First-Crowned, monastery Zica has been built between 1208 and 1230. In 1219 Zica became the first seat of the Serbian Archbishopic. The church, dedicated to the Ascension of Our Lord, displays the features of the Raska school. The ground plan is shaped as a spacious nave with a large apse at its eastern end. The central space is domed. The church was built of stone and brick. Architecturally, the Byzantine spirit prevails.
There are three layers of painting, each being a separate entity. The earliest frescoes were painted immediately after the first archbishop Sava's return from Nicaea (1219), but
only in the choir portions of these have been preserved. Towards the end of 13th century Zica was burned and consequently deserted. Renovation was carried out during the time of Archbishops Jevstatije II (1292-1309), and Nikodim (1317-1337), when the refectory was adorned with frescoes, the church covered with a leaden roof, and a tower erected. The new frescoes were painted during the reign of King Milutin, but they have suffered serious damage, too. Fragments have survived on the east wall of the passage beneath the tower (composition of King Stefan and his son Radoslav), in the narthex, nave and side-chapels.

Hello Biljana,
Where is this Church? Who painted the scenes, and what date were they painted? The image is excellent for a low light shot, but many of us are interested in the art factor of such images. so please, write a short note on the images you post.
Thanks, Steve
Jako lep rad Biljana sa interasntnim svetlom!Pozdrav!A.
