Monastery Gradac is situated on the slopes of Mt. Golija, built in the
late XIII century on the ruins of an earlier church. It is an endowment
of Queen Jelena Anzujska /Helen Anjou/, the wife of king Uros I
(resulting in the gothic architectural influence). The marble
sarcophagus of St. Jelena is located in the monastery church.

Velika Hoca, Kosovo Velika Hoca is a village in the municipality of Orahovac,
in Kosovo & Metohija. It is one of the Serb enclaves in Kosovo, and
houses some 13 Orthodox church buildings, most of which date to the
Serbian Middle Ages. Velika Hoča is situated in the historical region of
Metohija and is one of the oldest settlements in Metohija. It was given
as metochion by Stefan Nemanja to Hilandar in 1198–99 (Charter of
Hilandar).

Lipljan, Kosovo The church of The Presentation of the Virgin in Lipljan was probably
built in the second or third decade of the 14th century, on the
foundations of an earlier Byzantine basilica. It was mentioned for the
first time in 1331 in one of the King Dusan's charters and was donated
in 1336 to Tower (Pirg) of the Ascension in Hilandar. The original
church paintings have been dated the middle of the 14th century, and
their founder was an unknown landowner whose portrait is painted on the
northern wall of the nave.

as Tamnica (Temnica) was erected in 14th century on the ruins of the
earlier Byzantine basilica. Foudation is in the shape of the

of limestone and brick. As it was it was in ruins for many centuries,
only fragments of frescoes have been preserved.

Help us reach our goal for the next year. Many collections are planned, including the Church of Bogorodicia Ljeviska in Prizren, and rare manuscripts from Kosovo monasteries, but it will all depend on the funds available. Our goal is to raise $10,000 in donations that we can match with funds available for this purpose from our long-time patrons and institutions.
