Sveti Đurađ monastery, Serbian Orthodox monastery in Timiș County, Romania.

The medieval complex consists of a church with a cruciform base, a dome, and surrounding monastic buildings constructed in 1794.

Serbian despot Jovan Branković established the monastery in 1485, which later underwent reconstruction during the late 18th century under Iguman Augustin Petrović.

The monastery contains an iconostasis painted by Jovan Isailović and wall paintings by Pavle Đurđev in the Serbian Baroque artistic tradition.

Religious services at the monastery are conducted in Serbian and Old Church Slavonic languages, maintaining traditional Orthodox practices.

The monastery houses notable relics including a fragment of Saint George's skull and a piece of the chain that bound Saint Peter.
