Monastère de la Transfiguration, Orthodox monastery in Ovčar Banja, Serbia

The Transfiguration Monastery maintains a spiritual center with six resident nuns who follow traditional Orthodox practices and daily prayer routines.

Founded in 1978, the monastery established strong connections with the Simonos-Petra monastery on Mount Athos in Greece, operating as its dependent institution.

The monastery holds regular Orthodox services every Sunday and during religious festivals, providing spiritual guidance to the local community.

Visitors can purchase agricultural products made by the nuns, including walnuts, walnut cream, and various homemade jams from their workshop.

The monastery raises Charmois sheep, certified by the French Union for the Respect of Animals, integrating traditional farming with modern standards.
