About Church of St Demetrius

The Church of St Demetrius the Great Martyr was the family chapel of Nikola I Petrović. It is built of rough stone, with a four-sided bell tower designed by the mason Miloš Lepetić, and the carved iconostasis and its icons are by the church artist Vasilije Đinovski. Our advice: pair it with the Petrović Palace in Kruševac park.
