Description
The Church of the Annunciation (Св. Благовештение) in Prilep was built in the year 1838. One of the attached German postcards shows the iconostasis during the First World War, which is preserved in its original form until today, as has been proven by a survey in May 2025. It is 16 m long and 6,2 m high. On the postcard it is noted in German Kurrentschrift ("cursive script") "Prilep. Inneres einer Kirche".
Another German postcard from 1915, attached to this file, shows the church's bell tower, which was renovated in 1869 and is still preserved today.
