Veselinje Monastery

Landmark

Serbian Orthodox monastery

The Veselinje Monastery is a Serbian Orthodox monastery dedicated to John the Baptist and located at the village of Vrba 5 km (3.1 mi) south-east of the town of Glamoč, in western Bosnia and Herzegovina. The monastery's church, consecrated on 10 August 1975, was built without intention to found a monastery around it. The ktitor of the church was Veselin Nearlović, a businessman from Buenos Aires, Argentina, who was born in Vrba. After the ktitor agreed with the idea to establish a monastery at the church, monastic buildings were constructed, and the Veselinje Monastery was consecrated on 8 April 1985.
