White Church of Karan

[1] The church was established by Župan Petar Brajan between 1340 and 1342 on the site of a former Roman worship house, according to the tombs excavated by archaeologists near the building.

The eastern part of the church has a semi-circular apse with a stone iconostasis.

The western frescoes represent Župan Brajan and his wife Struja, his son and three daughters, while the eastern frescoes show Emperor Stefan Dušan with his wife Jelena and his son Uroš, as well as saints of the Nemanjić dynasty (namely Simeon, Sava and Milutin).
