The Royal Capital of Cetinje is aware of the damage to the stone pillars on Orlovo Krs and, in cooperation with the Directorate for the Protection of Cultural Heritage, is working on preparing their repair, RTV Cetinje announced from the Royal Capital.
This media outlet sent questions regarding damage to a pair of stone fence posts that were damaged due to weather conditions and electrical installations installed on the metal fence around the mausoleum to Bishop Danilo Petrović.
Previously, the Directorate for the Protection of Cultural Heritage of Montenegro responded to the questions raised by stating that the institution "was not aware of the devastation of the fence at Orlovo krš and that the aforementioned works were carried out without the consent of this Directorate, that is, without a conservation project to which the Directorate gave its consent."
The Administration has informed the Inspection for the Protection of Cultural Property of the Ministry of Culture and Media about the above, which should review the situation and act in accordance with its jurisdiction.
"The works that have been carried out so far represent urgent rehabilitation interventions, which were necessary to prevent further devastation, as well as to protect people and property. We emphasize that these are temporary works, which have the character of protective measures until the conditions for a permanent solution are created. The Royal Capital is in constant communication with the Directorate for the Protection of Cultural Heritage, and all activities will be further implemented exclusively in cooperation with the competent institutions and with previously obtained consents. After obtaining all necessary approvals, the area will be permanently arranged in a way that will preserve its cultural and historical significance. The City Administration remains committed to the preservation of cultural heritage and the continuous improvement of public space in cooperation with the competent institutions and citizens, the Royal Capital announced.
RTV Cetinje added that there was no clarification on the issue regarding electrical installations and whether the planned measures also include their removal from the fence.
