<\/p>\nLelic monastery is located in the village of the same name near Valjevo (11 km). It is the endowment of Bishop Nikolaj and his father Dragomir Velimirovic.<\/p>\n
The church is a modest structure in wich the Morava style is permeated with new architectural solutions. It has a cruciform base with a dome over the central part of the church. It is built of stone, brick and travertine. In front of the church is a large bell tower with the church resident.<\/p>\n
The frescoes are based on the ideas of Bishop Nikolaj. This painting is unusual in the content and it contains the theological interpreations of Bishop Nikolaj. The scene of the Last Judgment dominates the interwoven biblical events. The iconostasis dates from the same time as the church.<\/p>\n

Scena Stra\u0161nog Suda dominira nad ostalim biblijskim doga\u0111ajima, a ikonostas poti\u010de iz istog vremena kao i sama crkva.<\/p>\n
