Savina_Monastery,_Montenegro
Savina Monastery (Serbian Cyrillic: Савина) is a Serb Orthodox monastery near the city Herceg Novi in Boka Kotorska, and is made of thick Mediterranean vegetation in one of the most beautiful parts of the northern Montenegrin coast. It was built by the Duke of Saint Sava, Stjepan Vukčić Kosača of Herzegovina. The monastery consists of three churches: A small church of the Assumption, the Great Temple of the Assumption and the Temple of Saint Sava by which the monastery is named.
Small church of the Assumption is a very small, only ten meters long and six meters wide. Probably comes from the 1030 year, although the oldest record in which the monastery mentioned in 1648. Its reconstruction began in the late 17th century, the arrival of refugee monks from Tvrdoš Monastery, (Herzegovina), and was completed in 1831.
