Chargé d’Affaires Laura Hruby together with the Minister of Culture Sergiu Prodan announced on September 27th the last phase of our joint effort to restore the Assumption of the Virgin Mary Church in Causeni. The Embassy provided an additional $290,000 through the Ambassadors Fund for Cultural Preservation, bringing total U.S. support since 2016 to more than $1 million. The project, a partnership between the U.S. and Moldovan governments, will preserve the unique church frescoes for future generations. The Archaeological Research Centre of the Republic of Moldova is in charge of the restoration.
