Tvrdoš Monastery

The monastery complex stands on the right bank of the Trebišnjica River, featuring traditional stone architecture and multiple religious structures within its walls.

The foundations date to a 4th-century Roman church, while the current monastery emerged in 1401 and underwent reconstruction after Venetian forces destroyed it in 1694.

The monastery maintains Orthodox Christian traditions through regular services, religious ceremonies, and the preservation of religious artifacts from different periods.

The monastery welcomes visitors daily, offering guided tours of both the religious buildings and wine cellars, with parking facilities available on site.

A glass floor section in the church reveals the ancient foundations beneath, while the monastic wine cellar produces wines from local Vranac and Žilavka grapes.
