The trip will take us to one of the most picturesque regions of the Codrii reservation, 40 km from Chișinău, where one of the oldest monasteries in Moldova is located – Căpriana (founded in 1429). It is situated at the edge of a big forest between the villages Straseni and Capriana, being founded in the XVth century during the rule of Alexandru cel Bun and reconstructed by Stefan the Great in 1470. The complex includes the Churches of Virgin's Assumption (1545), Saint Nicholas (1840) and Saint George (1907) which abut the abbot's house, the refectory and cells. The most ancient is the Virgin's Assumption Church founded by Petru Rares. After reconstruction in 1820 by Metropolit G. Banulescu-Bodoni it kept unchanged only the decorative apses with arcature and the walls down to the socle level. In the course of construction, a bell-house with a pyramidal roof and an octagonal dome with a bulbous turret over the naos, were built.
