Manastir Grabovac, Orthodox monastery in Obrenovac, Serbia

Manastir Grabovac is an Orthodox monastery in Obrenovac featuring a main church with a single-nave design, semi-circular apse, and decorative rosette window above the entrance. The complex includes several auxiliary buildings arranged around the central church to form the complete monastic grounds.

The monastery stands on the site of an older foundation linked by tradition to King Dragutin, who according to legend built it near a healing spring after a fall from his horse at Jelenac in 1282. It was destroyed in 1521 by Suleiman's army bound for Belgrade, later rebuilt, and razed again after the First Serbian Uprising. The present church was built in 1894 by a "master from Macedonia" on the foundations of the 1813 building.

The monastery church is dedicated to Saint Nicholas, and a chapel stands at the Vidana voda spring, where baptisms are held; the mineral water is considered healing in local belief. A marble plaque inside honours the liberators of Belgrade of 1806, recalling their gathering at Grabovac before marching on the city.

The monastery stands in the village of Grabovac, about 10 km from Obrenovac on the road toward Banjani. A chapel at the Vidana voda spring beside the complex is used for baptisms. The church interior was repainted between 1988 and 1990, and a new cross was placed on the church in 1991.

A chapel stands at the Vidana voda spring beside the monastery, and its mineral water is used for baptisms; local belief holds it to be healing. The spring was given a fountain in 1993, when the church facade was also renewed.
