Karpino Monastery, Byzantine monastery in Orah, North Macedonia.
The monastery consists of a stone church with a triconch apse design, displaying classical Byzantine architectural elements and detailed interior frescoes.
Founded in 1100, the monastery underwent multiple reconstructions over centuries, with a notable restoration in 1892 that added new layers of religious paintings.
The monastery contains seven original icons from 1606-1607 created by Nikola Zoograf and his students, representing significant Macedonian Orthodox religious art.
Located near Kumanovo in northeastern North Macedonia, the monastery maintains regular visiting hours and welcomes guests interested in religious architecture.
At its peak, three hundred monks operated within the monastery walls, dedicating their time to copying religious manuscripts and church books.
