The Annunciation Monastery is located at the foot of the Rudnik Mountain, near the Srebrnica River. It was built around 1400, and in the eighteenth century there was also a monastic school. The old church dates from the fourteenth century and is dedicated to the Annunciation of the Blessed Virgin. It is a modest one-nave structure, with a low semicircular apse on the east side. It is made of limestone with a simple façade without decorative elements. Larger dimensions are nailed down, and the square base bell tower is very massive. The wall painting is of high artistic quality, and in part two layers of paintings, dating from the fourteenth and seventeenth centuries, have been preserved. The monumental composition of the "Last Judgment" is preserved on the east wall of the pier. The iconostasis is from the nineteenth century and is composed of icons from different epochs, with a characteristic sixteenth-century wood-carved cross depicting the crucifixion of Christ with the Virgin and Apostle John.
