  • In 1345, this monastery was mentioned for the first time as the endowment of princess Jelena Šubić (Nemanjić), half-sister of the Serbian emperor Dušan, the wife (and later widow) of Mladen III Šubić, Croatian duke of Skradin and Bribir. This monastery lays above an old Roman site, it is excavated catacombs (Roman burial cites) beneath the church, thus it's a part of a greater historical site.. The church of St. Archangel was erected in 1422 on the location of an earlier Gothic structure. The Turks devastated the church around 1530 but it was restored on several occasions. The monastery buildings (18th-19th century), the church and the bell tower are situated around a rectangular cloister with arcades. The monks of this monastery in the 17th century were forced to flee from from Ottomans. They've found shelter in Zadar, where pope Innocent X in 1655 gave them two churches, that were the ownership of Franciscans of the Third Order, the "Glagolitians" (glagoljaši) . In the later agreement with the Franciscans, monastery monks declared that they "live in the service of the Greek Church, the old illyrian or Croatian language." The last destruction in the history of the monastery happened after Operation Storm in 1995 when the monastery was looted by Croatian para-militaries and the seminary shut down. Some of the damage was since repaired and the seminary was reopened in 2001, but the priceless stolen property of prominent cultural heritage hasn't been found.
