Monastère de la Présentation-de-la-Mère-de-Dieu-au-Temple, Serbian Orthodox monastery in Leskovac, Serbia

The monastery features stone walls with detailed frescos, including representations of religious scenes and historical figures throughout its interior spaces.

Construction of the monastery began in 1499 under the guidance of nun Ksenija and her sisters Teofa, Marta, and Marija, reaching completion in 1500.

The monastery holds regular Orthodox ceremonies and maintains Serbian religious traditions through its role as an active spiritual center in the Jablanica district.

The monastery welcomes visitors during daylight hours and provides guided tours explaining the historical significance of its architectural elements and religious artifacts.

Original 15th-century murals display portraits of the founding sisters, with Ksenija presenting a model of the church to the Mother of God.
