About Osogovo Monastery

The Osogovo Monastery is dedicated to the hermit St Joachim of Osogovo and stands in the forests above Kriva Palanka, near the Bulgarian border. Its churches and courtyard make a peaceful stop on the road east. Our advice: dress modestly; it pairs well with a drive to Kratovo.
