The
surroundings of St. Naum's Monastery
The monastery of St. Naum, dedicated to Archangel Michael, is located on the southern shore of Lake
Ohrid. The original building was constructed by the educator St. Naum around 900
A.D. The Monastery is surrounded by magnificent forest whose shades mirror in
the clear waters of the Drim river, with its springs at 700 metres distance from
the Monastery. There the rivers also forms
beautiful small lake whose permanent inhabitants, among other wildlife, are
swans.
