Church of St. Nicholas, Brezova

Ivanjica Municipality, Serbia

The Church of Saint Nicholas (Serbian: /Crkva Svetog Nikole) is a church of the Serbian Orthodox Church, located in the village of Brezova, 26 km southwest of Ivanjica. Situated on Mučanj mountain, it was built during the first half of the 17th century at the place of an older church. Folk tradition links the construction of the church with Despot Stefan Lazarević whose fresco portrait is located in the church, although he lived in the 15th century. An Archeological survey of the church, but also its conservation and restoration was being conducted at several instances (1971–1972, 1973–1975. and 1987), resulting in church's present status of state protected monument of great cultural significance.
