Prilep – Sts. Peter & Paul


Saints Peter & Paul, Sveti Petar I Pavle (Свети Петар и Павле) – Prilep (Прилеп)

This small church dedicated to Sts. Peter & Paul is located on the north side of Prilep in the village of Varoš (Varosh, Варош) adjacent to the road that leads you to the Holy Archangel Michael Monastery (Sveti Arhangel Mikhail) Varoš.

Exact records of when the church was built are not known but the church is believed to have been built in the 14th century from local stone and brick.  This is a single nave church with a semi-circular apse.  Some of the original frescoes are still preserved on the western and northern walls.1
