Monastery

The Podlastva Monastery is a Serbian Orthodox monastery located in Lastva Grbaljska, in Grbalj, Montenegro. The monastery's church is dedicated to the Nativity of the Theotokos. According to a local legend, the Podlastva Monastery was established around 1350 by Emperor Dušan. It has been pillaged, burned, destroyed, and renovated several times over its history. Montenegro's 1979 earthquake caused a great deal of damage that was partly rehabilitated in 1984. Podlastva Monastery has long served as a common gathering place for all Grbljani (people). Many important spiritual, cultural, and political events during this region's turbulent history occurred on the monastery grounds. It also provided educational enrichment during the years in which it had operated a local school.
