Bidobista Place The Archbishop of Ōhrid Demetrios Chomatenos ruled around 1220 that the contract concerning the sale of the inherited estate of Georgios Kuritzes to Silvestros from the village Bidobista is not valid (τὸν ἐν τῷ χωρίῳ Βιδοβίστῃ οἰκοῦντα τοὔνομα Σίλβεστρον). The village is mentioned in both fragmentary notes on the back of the charter of the Serbian King Stefan Uroš IV Dušan for the Church of the Holy Mother of God Peribleptos in Ōhrid from 14th century (i dělь dō voděnici, mlinь vь sь u Vidovišti; i děl ōd voděnice mlinь vsь u Vidovišti).
Lukotzerebe Place The church of Saint Constantine and Helena owned two properties near Lukotzerebe. One was a piece of land, which bordered the possession of the Priest Stephanos from the east and the land of Nikolaos Maminas from the west (χωράφιον εἰς τὴν Λουκοτζέρεβη, πλησίον ἐξ ἀνατολῶν τοῦ παππᾶ Στεφάνου καὶ ἐκ δυσμῶν πλησίον κὺρ Νικολάου τοῦ Μαμινοῦ). The second plot of land was in the vicinity of the public road from the east and the property, which belonged to the church of Saint Barbara in Ohrid from the west (ἔτερον χωράφιον εἰς τὴν αὐτὴν τὴν Λουκοτζέρεβιν, πλησίον ἐξ ἀνατολῶν τῆς δημοσίας ὁδοῦ, ἐκ δυσμῶν πλησίον τῆς ἁγίας Βαρβάρας). The village is mentioned in the fragmentary note on the back of the charter of the Serbian King Stefan Uroš IV Dušan for the Church of the Holy Mother of God Peribleptos in Ōhrid from the 14th century (30 litrь voska i tarona što jestь u Lukočrěvě i te tamu u Trnově za adьrfato). The village is registered in the Defters for the Nahija Ohrid between the years 1536 and 1539 and under the year 1583 as Gorno Lokočeroj and Dolno Lokočeroj.
Toplica Place The village Toplica is mentioned in both fragmentary notes on the back of the charter of the Serbian King Stefan Uroš IV Dušan for the Church of the Holy Mother of God Peribleptos in Ōhrid from 14th century (selo Toplica i manastirь sveti Nikolu ni desetkь vini i gumniština i popisaniju sigilь v mestè eksarštine; selo Tžupnica i manastirь Svety Nikola u ki desetkь vini igumenьština i popisaniju sigilь v město eksarštine).
Toplica, Monastery of St. Nicholas Place The Monastery of St. Nicholas is situated at the foot of Plakenska Mountain and near the right bank of the Crna Reka, between the villages of Sloeštica, Babino and Žvan. Of the former Monastery complex, only the church dedicated St. Nicholas has been preserved to this day. It was built in several construction phases, through centuries. It was first built probably in the 5th or 6th century, and later in the 14th century. Today's Church was built by Dimitar Pepik from Kratovo in the 16th century. In the narthex, along with the signature of the painter Jovan dated in 1534-1535, the name of the founder Dimitar Pepić is also written. Its a single nave edifice with a narthex (which has on the North and South side chapels), apse and a semicircular vault. The Monastery of Sveti Nikola near Toplica is mentioned in both fragmentary notes on the back of the charter of the Serbian King Stefan Uroš IV Dušan for the Church of the Holy Mother of God Peribleptos in Ōhrid from 14th century (selo Toplica i manastirь sveti Nikolu ni desetkь vini i gumniština i popisaniju sigilь v mestè eksarštine; selo Tžupnica i manastirь Svety Nikola u ki desetkь vini igumenьština i popisaniju sigilь v město eksarštine). A tetraevangelion from the end of the 14th century and the beginning of 15th century probably comes from the scriptorium of the monastery. A colophone from the menaion for the March and April copied between 1535-1536, which is stored in the University Library in Belgrade, mentions the abbot Makarij and the monks of Sveti Nikola in the place called Toplica. An inscription in the form of a prayer on the icon of Jesus Christ the Savior attests the name of the donor Dimitar Pepiḱ and the date 1542/1543, when the inscription was made.
