At the beginning of the 21st century, the monastery church was renovated, while the renovation of the entire complex is still in progress. During archaeological excavations of the complex, prehistoric burial mounds from the Bronze Age, Roman tombs and a necropolis (from the 9th and 10th centuries) around it were discovered.
Janja Monastery was probably built in the middle or end of the 15th century and was destroyed at the end of the 17th century.

Ivan Kovalčik Mileševac from Novi Sad.
