Budisavci Monastery, Church of Transfiguration of Jesus Christ Place Budisavci Monastery is situated in the Budisavci village, 18km South-East of the city of Peć. It was built in the first half of the 14th century. Researchers believe ktetors were either King Milutin (as mentioned in the partially saved inscription) or the sister of King Stefan Dečanski. The Church was reconstructed and fresco painted in the 16th century by Patriarch Makarije Sokolović. The Church is in the form of an inscribed cross with a dome, an apse which is semicircular on the inside and rectangular on the outside and a narthex (which was renewed in the 19th century). Frescoes from the 14th century have not survived, and a new layer was made in the 16th century.
