Chiprovtsi Monastery

Bulgaria


Founded in the 10th century, this working monastery, dedicated to Sveti Ivan Rilski (St John of Rila), was destroyed and rebuilt several times over the years – what you see today dates largely from the early 19th century. It's roughly 7km northeast of Chiprovtsi village; take any bus between Montana and Chiprovtsi.
