Spydeberg Church is a long church dating from 1844. The original church on the site was a medieval stone church, probably built in the 12th or 13th century. This building was completely burnt down in 1841. After the fire, the builder Johan Fredrich Lühr was engaged to construct a new church. At that time, Lühr was involved in the work on the Oslo palace and worked closely with the architect Linstow.

The construction of the Sremski Karlovci Cathedral began in 1758 at the instigation of the Metropolitan of Karlovac Pavle Nenadović, on the site of an old church from the Ottoman period. In 1760, a tower and a dome were built according to the design of Zaharije Orfelin (1726-1785), and the church was completely completed in 1762. At the end of the 18th century, the cathedral was severely damaged by a fire, and it was rebuilt for the first time in 1805. In 1811, the cathedral was renovated with important changes, which gave the church neoclassical characteristics. A century later (in 1911) it was rebuilt and given a Renaissance façade instead of a Baroque one. The church retained its appearance after this renovation.

Sretenje Monastery is one of ten monasteries in the gorge of Ovčar-Kablar. The monastery was founded in the 16th century and underwent extensive renovations in 1818.

The Sretensky Monastery is an orthodox monastery built in the 14th century. The modern monastery complex includes the Sreteniye Cathedral of the Vladimir Mother of God Icon with two chapels, galleries, a belfry and a few service buildings. The monastery is the place where the Our Lady of Vladimir met Muscovites in the late 14th century. At the meeting place with the icon (that is, Sreteniya), a wooden church was built in honor of the Vladimir icon, rebuilt in stone in 1679. In 1918 the monastery was closed, and from 1928 to 1930, all the churches, except the Our Lady of Vladimir, and almost all the buildings were destroyed. Since 1958, the cathedral housed the restoration workshops of I. Grabar. The monastery was reopened in 1995. It houses the largest Orthodox publishing house, the famous male choir, and a seminary.
