Koporin Monastery, Medieval Orthodox monastery in Velika Plana, Serbia.
The single-nave church, crowned with a dome, stands within a complex including a bell tower, dormitory, and economic buildings in a forest valley.
Built in 1401 during the reign of Despot Stefan Lazarević, the monastery served as a strategic location during the First Serbian Uprising of 1804.
The monastery walls contain preserved frescoes depicting Despot Stefan Lazarević alongside noble dignitaries following the Battle of Ankara in 1402.
Visitors can reach the monastery by car from the E75 highway exit at Velika Plana, following signs through town for one kilometer after the petrol station.
The reliquary containing Stefan Lazarević's remains opens twice annually: on his death date and during the monastery feast on August 1st.
