PEŠTANI MOTHER-OF-GOD CHAPEL

This Orthodox rock chapel (Црква Света Богородица Пештанска/Crkva Sveta Bogorodica Peštanska) is adorned with ^14th-century frescoes. Heavily denatured by the lake's humidity, the pigments were applied directly to the rock. However, representations of some of the great Orthodox feasts are still recognizable: the Annunciation, the Nativity, the Baptism of Christ... Only accessible from Gradište beach, the chapel is frequently visited by bathing-suited worshippers.
