Description

The Church of St. Archangel Michael was most probably built at the beginning of the 9th century or in the year 1000, as some researchers suggest, and is part of a complex of buildings called "Manastirine". This toponym points towards a ruined monastery at the same place, which had probably survived from late Roman times.
Its a six-leaf edifice of irregular plan, which is today in ruins.
