The most beautiful religious buildings Berane (Беране)

Located on the heights of the city, the monastery of Djurdjevi Stupovi ("the pillars of Saint George") was erected at the end of the 12th century. It consists of a konak (living quarters) and an imposing stone church. In 1219 it became the seat of the Budimljan (medieval name of Berane) episcopate. The church, whose lead roof was melted down during the Ottoman occupation, was later requisitioned by the Austro-Hungarian army to house its horses.
