| Trebinje, Church of St. Peter, Monastery of St. Peter de Campo | Place | The Church of St. Peter is situated within the Monastery of St. Peter de Campo, on the edge of Dižvar field and to the South of the village of Bihovo near Trebinje. It was built probably at the end of the 11th century (around 1080?). The remains of the church were demolished in 1906, and a new building was erected. It had a cruciform plan (cross inscribed in a single nave basilica) with a semicircular apse on its Eastern end, with chapels situated on the North-Western and South-Western parts of the church and a narthex. It had a wooden roof. Inside the church thirteen graves were found. One gravestone mentions Prince Sramko, which is dated to the end of the 12th century. | ||
| Trebinje, Monastery of St. Peter de Campo | Place | The remains of the Monastery of St. Peter de Campo are situated on the edge of Dižvar field and to the South of the village of Bihovo, near Trebinje. The complex consisted of two churches dedicated to St. Peter (rebuilt in 1906) and St. Paul (remains), monastery walls and a necropolis (stećci). Not much is known regarding the time, in which this monastery was erected. The Bishopric of Trebinje is first mentioned in a letter of Pope Benedict VIII (1012-1024) in 1022, which indicates that the monastery was erected prior to this date. In the "Letopis popa Dukljanina" it is stated that Radoslav, the brother of the Dioclean ruler Mihailo Vojisavljević (reigned ca. 1046-1081), was buried here. Mavro Orbini reports that the Grand Župan Desa of Raška (reigned 1144-1165) was buried in the Church of St. Paul within this monastery complex. |
