About
The Krušedol Monastery (Serbian Cyrillic: Манастир Крушедол, romanized: Manastir Krušedol, pronounced [kruʃɛ̌dɔl]) is a Serbian Orthodox monastery on the Fruška Gora mountain in the Syrmia region, northern Serbia, in the province of Vojvodina. The monastery is the legacy of the last Serbian despot family of Syrmia - Branković. Dedicated to the Annunciation to the Theotokos, it has been described as the "spiritual beacon" of Fruška Gora and "Second Studenica".
