Project Description
Located 30 meters southeast of the “Saint Dumitru” Church in Suceava, the “Saint Dumitru” Bell Tower is a historical monument classified with the LMI code SV-II-m-A-05479.03. Prince Alexandru Lăpușneanu, son-in-law of Petru Rareș, built between 1560-1561 a three-story bell tower with two-meter-thick walls, partially over the ruins of a previous construction. In 1809, the tower was damaged by a fire, and was renovated only in 1845, when a new floor was added in the shape of a spire with an octagonal base, above which the top of the roof rises, on eight wooden columns. Currently, the bell tower is 40 meters high, being the tallest church tower in Suceava.
