Dobrilovina Monastery, Serbian Orthodox monastery near Tara River Canyon, Montenegro.

Dobrilovina Monastery is a monastic complex located near the Tara River in Montenegro, featuring a church with traditional regional architectural design. The structure displays characteristic elements of medieval construction with side chapels and a rectangular sanctuary.

The monastery was founded in the early 17th century, with interior frescoes completed just a few years later. Over the centuries it suffered repeated damage but was rebuilt through various periods.

The monastery served as a gathering place where the local community reinforced their sense of identity and heritage. Visitors today encounter a space that held deep meaning for the region's people.
