Stuplje Monastery, Serbian Orthodox monastery in Gornji Vijačani, Bosnia and Herzegovina.

The monastery complex features a basilica measuring 14 meters in length and 7.5 meters in width near the Manastirica stream.

The first written records of the monastery date back to the 15th century, before the Ottoman conquest of the Kingdom of Bosnia in 1463.

Monks at the monastery engaged in transcribing religious texts during the 17th century, preserving Orthodox literature for future generations.

The monastery stands at the intersection of three municipalities: Prnjavor, Čelinac, and Teslić, approximately 50 kilometers east of Banja Luka.

After its destruction in 1696, the monastery remained hidden for three centuries until local residents discovered its foundations in 1994.

Location: Gornji Vijačani

Inception: 15 century
