Gomionica Monastery, Serbian Orthodox monastery in Kmećani, Bosnia and Herzegovina

The monastery complex includes a church, traditional konak building, cemetery, and stone walls positioned at the base of Zmijanje plateau.

First documented in the 15th century under the name Zalužje, the monastery maintains manuscripts and printed books dating from the 14th to 17th centuries.

The monastery treasury contains numerous artifacts and icons from different periods, representing Serbian Orthodox religious art from the 16th to 19th centuries.

Located 42 kilometers west of Banja Luka, visitors can reach the monastery through marked roads that lead to the village of Kmećani.

Following World War II damage and the murder of its abbot in 1941, Gomionica transformed into one of only two female Serbian Orthodox monasteries in northern Bosnia.
