Vujan Monastery, Orthodox monastery in Prislonica, Serbia
The monastery includes a single-nave church with a bell tower, wooden dormitory, and stone fountain situated on the wooded slopes of Mount Vujan.
Built in 1805 by Nikola Milićević Lunjevica, the monastery stands on the site of the medieval Obrovin Monastery, which was destroyed by Turkish forces in 1597.
The monastery church contains frescoes painted in 1808 by artists Jeremija and Stojan Mihajlović, displaying traditional Serbian Orthodox religious artistry.
Visitors must follow Orthodox church dress code requirements, which include covering shoulders and knees when entering the religious building complex.
The monastery grounds contain the tomb of Duke Lazar Mutap, a significant military leader during the Serbian uprisings against Ottoman control.
