Čokešina monastery, Serbian Orthodox monastery in Loznica, Serbia.

The monastery complex includes a church, boarding house, chapel, and cemetery with tombstones at the foot of Vidojevica mountain on Cer.

Built between 1820 and 1823 with support from Prince Miloš and his brother Jevrem, replacing an earlier structure destroyed during the First Serbian Uprising.

The monastery preserves religious texts and documents while maintaining traditional Orthodox practices under the guidance of Abbess Ana Petrović.

Located 34 kilometers from Šabac, visitors can reach the monastery by turning from the main Loznica-Šabac road toward Mačvanski Prnjavor.

The church houses the Protection of the Most Holy Mother of God icon from 1830, with two preserved stone slabs from Stefan Ratković period.
