Sucevita is chronologically the last and greatest monastic ensemble among the painted monasteries in Bukovina, as it has the appearance of a real fortress,

with towers, buttresses and watch roads.It was erected in 1581 by Gheorghe Movila, Bishop of Radauti, and consecrated to the Assumption in 1584.

Ruling prince Ieremia Movila, Gheorghe Movila's brother, added to the church two open porches (to the north and to the south); he also built massive houses,

thick surrounding walls and defence towers.The legend has it that an old woman had been working

there for thirty years, carrying in her ox wagon stone for the construction of the monastery.

The fortress structure of the site had a defensive role; it actually prevented the mural paintings (made in 1595-

1596) from serious damaging as it happened with frescoes of other painted monasteries.

Paintings at Sucevita were best preserved both on the outside and on the inside.

Frescoes are painted in purple red and blue against an emerald green background. There is plenty of gold too,

taken from the art of miniature. They belong to Romanian masters of the Moldavian school of painting - Ioan the Painter and his brother Sofronie from Suceava -

They have a strongly narrative character and many of them represent scenes taken from the daily life of the

16th century Moldavia.

Mănăstirea Suceviţa având hramul Învierea Domnului a fost construită în ultimile decenii ale secolului al XVI-lea

prin contribuţia întregii familii de boieri Movilă In timpul domniei lui Irimia Movilă (1595-1606) bisericii i se adaugă cele două pridvoare de la intrare pe laturile de nord şi sud, turnurile de incintă şi se pictează biserica în

interior şi exterior. Pictura exterioară este cel mai bine conservată din grupul

bisericilor din Moldova. În tematica picturii găsim:

*Scara virtuţii - contrast dintre ordinea îngeriilor si haosul iadului;

*Rugăciunea tuturor sfinţilor; *Arborele lui Iesei - având la bază filozofii antici;

Cicluri complete din viata unor sfinti Sf. Ioan cel Nou, Sf Ierarh Nicolae, Sf. Mucenic Gheorghe;

Tot aici găsim si mormintele voievozilor Ieremia şi Simion Movilă.

In muzeul manăstirii se găsesc obiecte de o deosebită valoare, broderii şi manuscrise din secolele XV-XVI, etc.
