Klisina monastery, Orthodox monastery in Nishtavci, Bosnia and Herzegovina.

The monastery structure stands upon an elevated position beside the road connecting Prijedor to Sanski Most, with the Sana River running through the landscape.

The initial medieval monastery faced destruction following the Ottoman conquest of Bosnia in 1463, when the original dedication was to the Sorrow of the Lord.

The monastery name Klisina derives from the Greek word 'eklisi' meaning church, reflecting the deep religious heritage of this regional spiritual center.

The monastery maintains regular liturgical services and evening prayers, offering visitors opportunities for spiritual discussions with resident clergy members.

During excavations for the current temple, workers discovered foundations of a wooden church from the Ottoman period along with historical burial sites.
