Praskvica Monastery
Manastir Praskvica
A Serbian Orthodox monastery among olive groves on the hillside behind Sveti Stefan, with sea views and a quiet, ancient character.
Praskvica Monastery was founded around the 15th century and is the spiritual center of the Paštrovići tribe. The complex includes the Church of St. Nicholas and the Holy Trinity Church on the hill above, and it preserves frescoes and ancient icons. Centuries-old olive groves surround the monastery, with views of Sveti Stefan and the bay. Entry is free, but clothing must cover the shoulders and knees. Getting there: walk about 15 minutes up a footpath from the road near Sveti Stefan, or drive directly.
