Ancient hermitage set in a cliff above Lake Prespa. Access by boat. Beautiful fresco of the Annunciation.

This Orthodox church (Kisha e Shën Mëhillit, Црква Свети Архангел Михаил/Crkva Sveti Arhangel Mihail) is a former 14th-century hermitage set into a cliff above Lake Prespa. The lower part served as housing for the monks while the upper part, accessible by a staircase, houses a 3 x 3 m chapel whose entrance is decorated with a fresco depicting the Annunciation: the archangel Michael announces to Mary that she is pregnant.
