Pavlovac Monastery, Orthodox monastery in Koraćica, Serbia

The monastery stands on Kosmaj Mountain near a stream, featuring a church built with crushed stones and lime, alongside a dormitory in the southern section.

Despot Stefan Lazarević commissioned the monastery construction in the early 15th century, with the first written record appearing in a charter from November 1424.

The monastery contains relics of monks who were killed by Ottoman forces after refusing to leave their spiritual home during the Great Migration of 1690.

Visitors can reach the monastery by taking the Belgrade-Niš highway to Mladenovac, then following the marked signs through the village of Koraćica.

The monastic complex includes what researchers believe was the summer residence of Serbian ruler Stefan Lazarević, located north of the main church building.
