Karakorum - the former capital of the Mongol state - and Erdene Zuu - the oldest Mongolian lamaic monastery - constitute the most important historical monuments of this country. The Ministry of Culture of Mongolia has requested a group of specialists from various countries to prepare a report which would define the premises for the conservation of this historical ensemble. These experts included the author of this article, in which he presents his extensive remarks on the subject. The examination of the ruins of Karakorum revealed the existence of ca 75 permanent edifices. Their construction (clay and timber) is the reason why archeological work must be connected with simultaneous conservation. The extant monument of the Erdene Zuu monastery calls for permanent and complex protection - the removal of vegatation around the objects and reconstruction. Due to their unsatisfactory technical condition, some of the monuments such as the town gates and the walls around the monastery call for immediate conservation-construction undertakings. A particularly significant task is the protection of unique murals in pavilions belonging to the Gurvam Zuu temples. The reconstruction of the devastated monastery should be executed upon the basis of a photogrammetric analysis of the existing archival photographs. An archeological and landscape protection zone should be delineated around both Erdene Zuu and Karakorum.
