Kaona Monastery, Orthodox monastery in Vladimirci, Serbia

The monastery includes a church built in Byzantine style with brick walls on stone foundations, dedicated to Saint Archangel Michael.

The monastery origins trace back to the 14th century, with local tradition attributing its foundation to Ikonija, sister of medieval Serbian knight Milos Obilic.

The monastery serves as a repository for a fragment of Saint Parascheva's relics and features detailed woodcarvings created by hieremonk Dorotej.

The monastery maintains a natural spring with water at 11 degrees Celsius, which locals use for eye treatments and traditional baptism ceremonies.

The monastery grounds contain a cave chapel dedicated to the Nativity of Christ, built to commemorate two millennia since the birth of Jesus.
