Monastery of St. George the Victorious

The Monastery of St. Jovan Bigorski, founded in 1020, consists of a church, an ossuary, a defence tower, monastery buildings and a newly built visitors' house. Attacked by the Turks in the 16th century, its reconstruction did not begin until 1743. Between 1812 and 1825, the complex was considerably enlarged. The monastery is famous for its carved wooden iconostasis made between 1829 and 1835 and for its icon of St. John the Baptist, which is said to have miraculous properties.

The church "St. Nicholas Summer" is a neoclassical style church in the village of Mavrovo. The church was built by the master builders of the Debar school in 1850. The icons of the throne were painted in 1855 by the famous master of Debar, Dicho Zograf. The church was sunk under Lake Mavrovo in 1953, but by the beginning of the 21st century, it had largely emerged out of the water due to droughts. In the mid-1990s, construction of a new St. Nicholas church in Mavrovo began and was completed in 2006.

Kičevo monastery, formerly called Krninski monastery, was founded before the middle of the 16th century and in the 1570s a stone church was built on the site of the present church. In 1843, the monastery was burnt down by Albanians from Debar, but the church remained standing. The church was demolished by order of Hegumen Hadji Teodosius to build a new church and other monastery facilities. The icons of the present church were made between 1848 and 1880, many of them were created by the painter Ditscho Zograf.
