On the way from Podgorica to Nikšće, when you pass the famous Bjelopavlići and the unsuspecting capital city of Danilovgrad, the Ostrog monastery appears carved into the rocks on the right. And the first thing that comes to my mind when I see the rocks in which this monastery is located is that it is incredible how the human hand, alone without the help of the Almighty, could make such a miracle in such a place.

This famous monastery was founded in the seventeenth century. The founder of this unique place in our area, Saint Basil, was declared a saint and his relics are kept in this incredible building.

Ostrog is the place where the largest number of pilgrims gather, not only in Montenegro but also beyond, and it is visited by members of all religions represented on the territory of Montenegro (Orthodox, Catholics and Muslims).

It is considered that the relics of St. Vasili are miraculous and there are very frequent examples and stories of people who went on a pilgrimage and were miraculously healed there.

Montenegro was the island of freedom in the enslaved Balkans for centuries. In the same way, this monastery is an island of spirituality and peace among the harsh and inaccessible Montenegrin rocks. Montenegro.com published the first feature about the trip to Ostrog back in 2000, when team members visited the monastery and it was then that the idea of ​​starting a travelogue on Montenegro.com was born.

So, at the same time as the article about Ostrog, the "Travelogues" section was started, which is certainly still one of the most recognizable on our site. Travelogues are something that all our friends and visitors liked so much that it inspired us to go further, and respond to everyone who asked for additional pictures from Ostrog.

For these new beautiful pictures of the Ostrog Monastery, we thank the great friend of our website, Mr. Mladen Perazić, thanks to whom we have the opportunity to see this holy place from a completely different angle and perspective with pictures that are impossible to find anywhere on the Internet or in popular brochures.
