The restoration of the medieval monastery of Devic has begun in the region of Drenica. During the escalation of Albanian extremist violence on March 17, 2004, the monastery was significantly damaged. The Devic sisterhood returned to the monastery 10 days after the pogrom.
By the end of the year, as part of the restoration, the walls in the church of the Entry of the Most Holy Theotokos into the Temple will be plastered and the floor construction repaired. Painting conservation work and the creation of an iconostasis are also planned.
