St. Trojice Monastery

 

On the west side of mountain Ovcar, next to the road from Ovcar banja to Ducalovici, is situated the old monastery of Svete Trojice.

We don’t  know precisely the date of its construction. According to the legend, it was built by the priests of Sretenje monastery. Nevertheless, some experts claim,  according to the architecture of the monastery church, that it can be even older from the Sretenje Monastery.

There are some historical facts about the monastery and its reconstruction and decoration that come from the XIX century. Frtom old frescoes, two remained: Saint Trinity and Mother of God with a child. Two very important icons from 1635 are saved: icon of Christ with his apostols and icon of  God’s Mother with Jesus.
