MONASTÈRE DE RMANJ

Founded in 1498, this Serbian Orthodox monastery (Manastir Rmanj/Манастир Рмањ) enjoys a beautiful setting with the Unac canyon dominated by Mount Šator (876 m above sea level) in the background. But its two churches, one new dedicated to St. John Chrysostom, the other old-looking but rebuilt in 2006 and dedicated to St. Nicholas, remind us that the complex was severely damaged in 1944 and 1995. The interior of the church of St. Nicholas houses some icons from the 19th century. The surroundings are occupied by a huge aquaculture farm.
