The monastery was founded in the early 2000s and belongs to the wider network of Serbian Orthodox religious sites in the country. Since its establishment it has grown to serve the spiritual needs of the surrounding region.
The monastery serves as a center where the local community gathers for religious services and observes Orthodox traditions. Visitors can witness how faith shapes daily life and see the continuity of religious practice in this part of Serbia.
The monastery is located roughly 87 kilometers southeast of Belgrade and is accessible by road from the capital. Visitors should be prepared for the local weather and check current conditions, as the site sits in a hilly region with variable climate.
