Rakovac Monastery

The monastery of Rakovac with its church dedicated to the Holy Healers Cosmas and Damian, as tradition has it, was founded by Raka Milošević, Chief Chamberlain to Despot Jovan Branković, according to a legend written in 1704.

The baroque bell-tower was adjoined in 1735, and the residential building gained its final, three-range shape in 1771.
