DJURDJEVI STUBOVI Djurdjevi Stubovi, another endowment of Stefan Nemanja, was built thirty years before Studenica (around 1176). Today it is only a ruin, topping a hill four kilometres from the Church of St. Peter in Novi Pazar. The remains of the frescoes on the few existing portions of the church indicate that the paintings once embellishing its walls were the work of a master's hand. A monumental fresco of St. George on horseback, still discernible above the ruins of the main entrance to the church, is striking even today. The name of the church is a reminder of its having been dedicated to St. George, and of the two bell-towers (Serbian: stubovi) which once stood in front of it. In order to save the monastery from complete dilapidation, comprehensive restoration has been under way in recent years Near the ruins of the church, there is a small chapel, built towards the end of the 13th century by King Dragutin (1276-1315) and intended to be his burial place. In the vaults, the frescoes include a number of Serbian assemblies symbolically represented and portraits of some of the first Nemanjics.
