The Serbian Monasteries
The monastic church of Visoki Dečani is dedicated to Christ Pantocrator and built from blocks of red-purple, light-yellow and onyx marble. It was constructed by builders working under a Franciscan friar, Vitus of Kotor. The church is distinguished by its imposing size and Romanesque and early Gothic structure and design.
