🏢 About the local organisation
Agency for Inspection and Restoration of Monuments of Moldova is a public body founded in
2011 which plays a special and truly significant role in protection of cultural and historical heritage
of Moldova and Chisinau, its capital, in particular. Unfortunately the current situation with the
historical monuments is very poor and precarious and now we officially beat an alarm on the
possible total disappearance of the cultural and historical heritage. The historical monuments are
being destroyed, demolished and rebuilt not in a proper way, all this increases possible lose of
the cultural heritage and urban citizenship. In this context activities of Agency are extremely
important and essential especially taken into account the fact that the Agency is the only one
public institution whose aims refer to this problem. The main aim of the Agency is to protect
cultural, historical, architectural, archaeological heritages of Moldova and raise awareness about
its salvation as well as contribute to its salvation by different means of support and protection
