Stjenik Monestery, Orthodox monastery near Čačak, Serbia

The monastery complex includes cells for nuns, a house church with an iconostasis, and a workshop dedicated to icon painting activities.

Following tensions with the Serbian Orthodox Church in 2003, the nuns relocated to a new location on Mikul mountain, establishing the current Stjenik Monastery.

The monastery maintains traditional Orthodox practices through daily prayers, monthly pilgrimage gatherings, and regular communal meals with local faithful visitors.

The religious site welcomes visitors who can observe ceremonies, participate in prayers, and experience the monastic environment within Serbian mountains.

The nuns combine their spiritual duties with physical labor, maintaining the property while pursuing artistic activities such as icon painting in their workshop.
