Nikolje Kablarsko Monastery, Orthodox monastery in Rošci, Serbia

Located at the foot of Kablar mountain on the West Morava River bank, the monastery follows a trefoil plan with walls of crushed stone.

Founded in the late 15th century, with first records from 1489, the monastery served as a refuge for Prince Miloš Obrenović during the 1815 Serbian Uprising.

The monastery contains frescoes from 1587 depicting the Solomon Temple, painted by two artists who operated a manuscript copying workshop during Ottoman rule.

Visitors can reach the monastery through the Moravica District, where a community of nuns maintains the religious traditions and welcomes guests.

The Gospel of St Nicholas, created in this monastery between 1240 and 1250, now resides in the Chester Beatty Library in Dublin, Ireland.
