This Orthodox monastery is isolated on the small island of Zvërnec, accessible via a 200 m-long wooden footbridge.

This Orthodox monastery (Manastiri i Shën Mërisë) is isolated on the small pine-covered island of Zvërnec (9 ha), linked to the hamlet of Zvërnec by a 200 m-long wooden footbridge that winds through the Narta lagoon. Its 10th- or 13th-century church has been extensively remodeled and has lost its frescoes. In the courtyard is the tomb of a Vlora resident who, it is said, wove the Albanian flag hoisted at the declaration of independence on November 28, 1912.

un charme fou
Endroit très particulier "en bout du monde" sur une presqu'île avec un chemin sans issue! on y vient pour flâner et respirer c'est assez charmant et agréable avec son ponton pour accéder au monastère qui est de petite taille , rien de spectaculaire, et visitable. Tenue correcte exigée, le gardien se chargera de vous le rappeler. Il n'est pas très chargé comme mobilier religieux, mais forcera quand même à réflexion. joli jardin bien entretenu, tout cadre bien en cet endroit qui sera à fréquenter sans modération.

Pendant notre visite en Albanie la semaine dernière, nous avons suivi les conseils de visite de ce site sur le petit fûté. Le chemin de sable après la forêt a été goudronné, mais malheureusement le pont reliant le monastère, n'a pas été entretenu et il n'est plus possible de le traverser. On peut apercevoir de loin le monastère avec une façade détérioré qui ne ressemble pas à celle de la photo sur le guide. Un passage est toutefois possible en bateau.
