Audio Guide of the Monastery of the Resurrection

The monastery is usually open from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM during the high season (May-September), but hours may vary. We recommend checking the official Tivat tourism website visit-montenegro.com or calling +382 32 670 700 to confirm.

Admission is free, but voluntary donations are accepted for the upkeep of the site. Some ceremonial areas may have restricted access outside religious services.

It is recommended to allow between 45 minutes and 1 hour to explore the complex, including the main church and the gardens. If you want extra time for meditation or detailed photography, plan for up to 90 minutes.

Founded in the 15th century, it is a symbol of Montenegro's Orthodox religious heritage. It stands out for its medieval frescoes and traditional Adriatic architecture. It was partially rebuilt after damage during the Balkan wars.

Mornings (9:00-11:00 AM) are ideal to avoid large groups and the summer heat. In spring (April-June), you will enjoy the gardens in bloom with fewer visitors than in July-August.

The main entrance has ramps, but some areas of the old cloister have uneven steps. Contact the monastery in advance at +382 69 055 044 to confirm specific conditions on the day of your visit.

A 10-minute walk away you will find Porto Montenegro Marina (luxury yachts), the Modern Art Gallery, and the Naval Museum. For excursions, the Bay of Kotor (UNESCO World Heritage Site) is 15 km away.

Wear comfortable shoes for uneven cobblestones, respect the dress code (shoulders/elbows covered), and visit the small artisan market on Fridays. Summer evenings occasionally feature liturgical choirs.
