MONASTÈRE DE GLOGOVAC
Serbian Orthodox monastery in a completely secluded natural setting in the narrow Glogovac valley, below Mount Visoki Borik.
This Serbian Orthodox monastery (Manastir Glogovac/Манастир Глоговац) enjoys a beautiful natural setting: it is completely isolated in the narrow valley of the Glogovac River, under the Visoki Borik mountain (1,351 km above sea level). Founded in 1463, it was restored from 1867 on the initiative of a strange character: Omer Pacha (1806-1871), a Serbian soldier of the Austro-Hungarian Empire converted to Islam during a mission in Bosnia and who became a general then an Ottoman minister. Destroyed by the Croatian Ustasha in 1942, the complex was rebuilt between 1960 and 2005.
