Žitomislić Monastery, Serbian Orthodox monastery in Žitomislići, Bosnia and Herzegovina.

The monastery complex includes a church dedicated to the Annunciation, with a traditional architecture featuring stone walls and decorative elements.

The construction of the monastery began in 1566 after Ottoman authorities granted permission to build it over the remains of an older church.

The monastery housed a notable scriptorium where monks created manuscripts and maintained a collection of religious texts from the 16th and 17th centuries.

The monastery welcomes visitors throughout the year and can be reached by following the main road from Mostar toward the southern border.

The monastery underwent complete reconstruction in 2002 following its destruction, with builders using traditional methods to restore its original appearance.
