The monastery ensemble from Bвrnova dates back to the 17th century and is the work of two founder-voivodes of Moldova – Miron Barnovschi and Eustratie Dabija. The archaeological research undertaken at the abbot’s house revealed the stages of the constructive evolution of this building and its relationship with the church. Archaeological research was carried out over three years and was limited to this historical monument. Thus, it was found that it was built in two stages, as well as the church, the first stage included only the construction of the cellars and the second meant the completion materialized by the construction of the house itself. From a structural point of view, the house had living rooms (cells for some of the clergy, especially those monks who had various functions), a kitchen, a dining room and the residence of the abbot of the monastery. Over time, although several repairs and maintenance operations have been carried out (it was also temporarily inhabited by Grigore II Ghica), the building in question has been in a deplorable state of disrepair, which also required the start of restoration work. Currently, the abbot’s house is being restored and it has been assigned the role of a museum of the monastery complex. |
