Veta Monastery, Orthodox monastery in Bela Palanka, Serbia

The Monastery of the Assumption of the Holy Mother of God stands at 494 meters above sea level in the Pirot District of southeastern Serbia.

Early Christian Bishop Nicetas of Remesiana helped establish Christianity in the region during the 4th century, influencing the development of religious sites like Veta Monastery.

The monastery contains traditional Serbian Orthodox architectural elements, including stone masonry construction and interior frescoes that represent regional religious artistry.

Visitors can reach the monastery through the A4 motorway network, which connects the site to major Serbian cities and provides convenient access.

The monastery serves as both a spiritual center and gathering place for the local community of 134 residents in the village of Veta.
