Why Gracanica Monastery matters
Gracanica was built in the early 14th century and is known for its elegant, many-domed church. Inside, the frescoes show saints and rulers in warm colours. It is still an active monastery, so dress modestly and keep your voice low. A short drive from the capital.
Talking points
- The church has five domes.
- It dates from the early 14th century.
- It is an active monastery, so dress modestly.
