The publication includes a site log that exemplifies a special case within the project 60 Wooden Churches: the wooden church from Pojogeni village (1797), Gorj County. Found in a state of pre-collapse and in 2009, saved by dismantling and reassembly at the Cămărăşeasca Monastery (ca. 1780) from Târgul Cărbunari, located 10 km away. The wooden church entered both the monastic life and that of the neighbouring community in a very short time, now being used and cared for properly.
