Monastery Koporin is situated 3 km from town Velika Plana , and 5 km from town Smedervska Palanka.
Monastery was founded in 1402, these photos were taken on it’s 600 years celebration (2002).Patriarch Pavle and several bishops held liturgy marking that day.
All medieval Serbian churches and monasteries were founded by Serbian rulers and other nobles. There is no data about Monastery Kopoirn, so even now we don’t know who the founder of this monastery was. So, the story is that Despot Stefan Lazarevic is founder of this beautiful place .Stefan Lazarevic was son of Princes Milica and Serbian ruler Prince Lazar ( killed in a battle of Kosovo in 1389).
Pokajnica church is completely made of logs in 1818. It was built by Vujica Vulicevic , as a sign of regret for killing Karadjordje. Pokajnica in Serbian means Place for Regret.
