Churches cathedrals basilicas and chapels

This Orthodox church (Црква Успение на Пресвета Богородица/Crkva Uspenie na Presveta Bogorodica) is a three-nave basilica completed in 1860. The greatest Mijak artists of the 19th century worked here. The frescoes were painted by Dičo Zograf (1819-1872), a native of Tresonče.
