Abstract
“St. Nicolas and St. Alexander” Church from Sulina is declared a historical monument in the list of Tulcea county. The headstone was laid by king Carol the Ist in the memory of Dobrogea liberation from the Turkish occupancy. It was built in two stages, 1910 – 1912 and 1933 – 1934. The foundation was built on oaken pillars, up to the multiannual minimal level of the Danube. From a stylistic point of view it is included in the large group of Wallachian ecclesiastic architecture, reconfirmed and undertaken by the “New Rumanian” style. Time, the Danube, underground waters, and earthquakes generated a series of degradations requiring rehabilitation and consolidation works, subject of our concern.
