Studenica Monastery

St. Simeon Nemanja built Studenica in 1190, and it became the mother of all Serbian monasteries. St. Sava wrote its rule, and the relics of St. Simeon were brought here from Athos. Its white marble Church of the Theotokos holds frescoes from 1209, among the finest of their age. It is a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
