Ostrog Monastery Tour
Visit one of the world’s most revered Christian pilgrimage sites, a place where faith, culture, and history meet. Founded in the 17th century by Vasilije, Metropolitan Bishop of Herzegovina, Monastery Ostrog is dramatically carved into a vertical cliff 900 meters above sea level. The relics of Saint Vasilije rest in the cave-church dedicated to the Presentation of the Mother of God, making this site a sacred destination for believers and visitors alike.
Despite the challenging mountain road, especially in winter, pilgrims continue to arrive in great numbers, drawn by the monastery’s spiritual power and breathtaking views. This tour offers not only a religious experience but also a deep connection to centuries of tradition and devotion.
Your journey begins at the designated meeting point, where you’ll be greeted by your licensed guide. After a scenic transfer, you’ll arrive at the monastery to explore its remarkable architecture, panoramic surroundings, and atmosphere of reverence. The visit will leave you with elevated feelings of devotion and awe.
